Here's what students are saying about Modern Calligraphy 201:
"Before taking Modern Calligraphy 201, I struggled with flourishing and layouts and felt stuck with my progress. The course videos helped me understand the fundamentals of these skills so I can confidently and creatively apply them instead of just copying what I see on Instagram. I'm so glad I made the investment in myself and my calligraphy!" - Averil Schiff
"Before
taking Shinah's 201 class, I lacked confidence and couldn't quite make
the leap from feeling like a beginner. This class gave me confidence to
layout designs more effectively and now I can actually embellish my
pieces in ways that look amazing!
If you're on the fence about making this investment...do it.
Shinah has created an unbelievable amount of printable content that you
can use for months or years to come - and these aren't boring drills!
This class guides you into creating work that is unique to YOU; not just learning to copy the work of the instructor. I can't wait to keep developing my own style." - Amanda Carso
"Shinah is an amazing teacher! I loved the layout of the course - videos, worksheets, assignments, and feedback each week. It was never "this is how it has to be done" but instead gave us tips, suggestions, and guidelines and then encouraged us to find our own style. I'm definitely more confident in my calligraphy and can't wait to see where it will take me!" - Danelle Erickson
"Before: watching too many random YouTube calligraphy tutorials, buying just about everything at the arts store if it was calligraphy related, copying quotes I liked on Pinterest including layouts and fonts, giving up after it got frustrating and never picking up a calligraphy pen for months
After: learning with intent, having a critical eye (without being OVERLY critical), focusing on "done, not perfect", knowing that everyone's learning journey is different and everyone has a unique writing and calligraphy style that makes you, YOU!
Thank you Shinah for teaching me the "secret sauce": HOW to learn calligraphy (not just the WHAT), developing my own style, and going beyond me just mimicking a certain font or flourish. I really couldn't thank you enough!" - Sylvia Chim
"Modern Calligraphy 201 was definitely a challenge but in the best, 'stretch you, push you, make you better' kind of way. I have learned the key elements that can give my writing a differentiated style - and how to continue to play with that. I feel like I would not be this far along without MC201" - Anna Pereira
"[This] course is phenomenal! It's easy to navigate. The interface is beautifully designed and executed. Your videos are well produced and you have a great demeanor when you present the material. It is easy to understand and follow. You've created a great product!!!" - Dave Lewis
"The course was very cohesive, laced with your personality in written content and video! I was
just writing words before to help create my style and I hit a plateau.
Module
2 really helped me focus on each individual letter.
" - Thao Tran
"[This] was a GAME CHANGER. I never thought I would be able to get a grasp on creating my own alphabet, but you made it seem so easy! I love the way you break it into tiny, manageable pieces. Now I want to create so many different styles!" - Sonia Desai
"Shinah, you're the f*cking bomb. I love how clear and concise the information in this course is! It has elevated my calligraphy to the next level. Thank you for taking the time to create this course. I'd recommend it to anyone who has begun their calligraphy journey and needs help refining their technique and finding their own unique style." - Lava Raman
"I really like Shinah's energy and teaching style. The easy flow of this course helped me jump right into the scary stuff that I didn't feel up to facing on my own. The modules are well paced and the practice sheets are now a valuable part of my calligraphy library!" - Kelli Whyte
"Before MC201 I knew how to copy and replicate letters from other calligraphers, but I didn't know the logic behind the flourishes or the ascenders, etc. After MC201 it's like I've develop a new set of skills and concepts I didn't even know existed." - Karina Wilson
