Was a little difficult to understand, at first, but turned out to be one of the best teachers ever. Her instructions can be unclear, but, don't hesitate to ASK QUETIONS! She's always willing to explain in detail. You also get portfolio-worthy material out of this class, as long as you put in the effort. Thanks Prof M. She truly wants to help.

Great Professor. I enjoyed her class and her advice. No matter your work, she'll find something great about it and will help you on improving it. Tests are a bit hard but you'll get them if you study. Her class is definitely good at showing you what the field of art work will be.

Professor Mehta was an excellent teacher, proficient and extremely knowledgeable. She works you hard, because her focus is to prepare you for the real world. If you want to learn Illustrator, them she is the perfect professor to choose. I am truly grateful to have had her, because I learned an enormous amount.

Professor Metha is a very good professor. She is a tough grader and is very strong about her grading. She helps you out in any way she can. You learn a lot from the class, I would recommend taking the class.

Professor Mehta was one of the nicest art professors I've had. I have learned so much in this class and she wants you to do well so she helps you with your work. The class was a little tough but the class was well worth taking. Would definitely have this professor again!

She is a great teacher. She is very tough and definitely makes you work for it but shed is fair n lenient. Also she is a little iffy when explaining things for the first time but she will constantly explain until every one gets it. She grades very well. She gives Great example of projects and she gives real life advice in the world of graphics D.

Class act.

Pretty hard not going to lie, but she is definitely a good professor

The work is hard only if your lazy and put no effort into it. She's definitely a great professor, makes the work fun! :)

If all the work is done the professor is pretty cool

Although this professor was strict and loaded us with work in/out class, she did show everyone what to do step by step and repeated herself until all the students got the idea of what to do. Only advice is to never procrastinate and work with peers. With those 2 tips you'd be fine.

I started school at a late age, and I was fortunate to have Professor Mehta, twice. She is strict and only wants her students to succeed. She helps you to see a clearer picture of how your design should develop. After completing each class I walked out with an amazing portfolio. She is incredible and I truly admire her. Thank you Professor!

Very nice professor but assigns a lot of work but if you keep track of your work and dont miss class you will be on track all semester

She's a very sweet professor, easy to understand and wants the best for her students. I've had her for two semesters straight and never had a problem other than late email answers. Overall, I enjoy having her as a professor.

Great professor. Through out the semester we did 13 projects and 1 group project. The professor expects you to know the basics of Illustrator since first day of class. Beware of pop quizzes. Take her if you can.

Had her for my one and only semester at NCC and im not sure why people are commenting about her awful ratings. Yes its a stressful class but if you put ur weight in and do the work, you will come out fine. She may be hard to understand but she always gives chances for you to ask ur questions.

professor is great , makes learning new programs simple. assignment are a breeze

I liked the professor, but I Was not a fan of how the pop quiz's are based on certain mac gestures for the programs we used.

Great teacher, yea she gives a decent amount of project but she always gives enough time to do them and always puts many examples up. Not super strict and overall a cool teacher. I would definitely take her class again

Professor Mehta is a good teacher. She teaches pretty much every single class and then gives the class an assignment pertaining to what was taught. It is good to take good notes so you don't forget commands on the computer. She also gives pop quizzes on the computer commands every now. Overall is a good teacher if you listen and pay attention.

One thing I appreciate about Professor Mehta is that she goes in depth with each lesson and tools in Photoshop. Trust me you will know photoshop very well by the end of the semester. However, she does overlap assignments(2-3 mini projects). I took three art classes and it was very time consuming. Just learn how to time manage and you'll be fine.

She is an amazing professor, all of her projects are fun to do and they are not that hard if you pay attention and watch the tutorials.

The professor was very good. She explains assignments step by step in detail and gave us a chance to redo mistakes in our assignments. The professor uploads work from other students on blackboard which helped me a lot because I was able to understand what was required in the assignments and what they have to look like.

Great Professor! She can be a little hard to understand sometimes, but she always stops to make sure that we were understanding and following. She gives alot assignments, but she is very understanding and allows you to hand in late. Your grade will suffer a bit but this Is college so be grateful that she even allows late work. Most teachers don't.

There is a lot of projects but as long as you stay on top of your work you should be just fine. Posts recordings so you can go back and watch them as many times as you need which is very helpful. Difficult if you tend to struggle with Adobe programs, but plenty of opportunity to work with it and get comfortable. Lets you revise and resubmit work.

She is a very nive professor and does what she can in order to have everyone pass the class with the best grade possible, the only thing is that she isn't the best at explaining things very clearly. But she does make a huge effort to provide instructions and and examples as to what she wants to be submitted. Over all shes a good professor.

This class helps me to be creative with my art.

She's a great teacher as long as you pay attention and do your work. Obviously like any teacher she would give bad grades if work isn't completed. She's also lenient for like the first half which helped many in the class as she stated in the beginning that the deadlines were strict. She would love to go over things we learned in class. Gr8 teacher

Professor Mehta is good but it is sort of difficult to understand her sometimes. She does give a bunch of homework. She is very stern when it comes to attendance. So, if one skips or is absent more than once then you won't pass the class. She does give extra credit assignments.

The class can be difficult, if you don't pay enough attention. Lots of learning involved.

I have no complains it was a bit hard to keep up with everything. But I liked our class.

Very responsible, she always shows examples so we would have a better idea as to what we are supposed to do for our assignments. She does her best to make sure we understand everything, and I appreciate that immensely.

I'll say it was a very good learning experience. she went into great depth on teaching everything with type. Definitely a lot of work but well worth the stress only because I really ended up learning a lot about type. I had her once a week so the work overload was a lot, but she was very nice and leant about submissions & resubmissions.

Professor M. does teach you a lot but do expect a lot of homework weekly. Some of the instructions can be a little confusing for the assignments she gives, but thankfully she always posts examples on blackboard to help you out when you need a visual.

She's a good teacher as long as you do the work. She can be strict at times, but it's only to help you get ready for the real world in design. If you are willing to do the work and further your knowledge in design I would take her class.

She is a great but tough teacher. Take her classes if you want to learn ALOT and put in ALOT of work. I created a full portfolio in this class & learned ALOT. Expect ongoing projects and make sure to take lots of notes when she explains the projects! Very strict but I became a better! If you're looking for an easy class DO NOT take this class!

Her assignments are amazing for your portfolio but it does require a lot of time. Be prepared to work hours on end to get an assignment done with barely any free time just to start another. She gives you great feedback on what to enhance about your work and time to revise with extra credit for any extra work you do aside from the requirements.

Professor Mehta is a very passionate, dedicated and extremely knowledgable about the subject being taught in class. Yes, she is a very strict professor, in my view, her main goal is to prepare the student to be successful in the job market. I didn't do well in class as I expected, but I am still happy with all the knowledge received in her class.

One thing I would say If taking GD2 is that the earlier you learn that art and design are connected yet separate the much much easier of a time you will have on assignments. As someone who is more of a traditional artist, learning that less is more is what elevated my designing, and learning that "the best design is the least design" is important

Illustrator might be my preferred design program now because of this class. You WILL improve if you put in the time and the effort. Take good notes and be prepared for an overlap of work towards the end of this course. With that said, most projects assigned were creative and will likely appeal to your own interests and add a lot to your portfolio.

There is a lot of work in this class but If you love making art and learning how to design it will be really fun. Be prepared to have a ton of homework and overlapping projects. Professor Mehta really loves to inspire creativity and pushes students to work hard and have creative freedom on the assignments. I loved this class.

She is very nice teacher. Get ready to get a lot of assignments. she gives grades very easy.

She gives good feedback and the projects are really worth the time. I have learned alot of techniques and shortcuts in the class. I would surely use the assignments done in class in my future portfolio. The only Downside of the class would be the amount of work and effort, so if you are good in time management you will be fine

She is very professional and very respectful professor, I would consider taking her class again, the only advise I would say is that time management is a key element when doing her assignment so you don't get caught behind or getting burned out by the fact that her assignment are overlapped. Other than that, she is very understanding with everyone.

my whole semester was horrible but Prof. Mehta's class made it wayyyy better

great professor would likely take again

Prof. Mehta is very skilled, does what is best for her students but her directions are sometimes very hard to follow.

Be prepare and come in with a strong head/mindset because a lot of work will be coming your way. Make sure to ask questions when not you don't understand. Be professional, respectful, active.

She will help you the best way she can and point you in the right direction for your future. She does critiques that will fix your work for your portfolio. I

Strict criteria to meet and very work intensive, but clearly displays interest in helping students achieve their full potential and is very open to constant work critique and scheduling face-to-face meetings.

Professor Mehta will not only aid you in developing as an artist, but as a person. She will challenge you to acknowledge what aspects of yourself need attention in order to overcome your limits. Grading & critiques may seem difficult but if you are capable of applying her feedback to your work, you will be better off in the long run.

Professor Mehta is determined to provide students with everything they need to succeed. She gives A LOT of work but it has been 100% beneficial. I'm thankful for the projects I have completed as her student. The work load can be stressful and intimidating but was worth it. She will push you to embrace the work & deadlines to let creativity flow.

Professor Mehta is an excellent instructor. They always emailed us all the assignments clearly and on time, so we knew exactly what we needed to do. All the course materials and PDFs were well-organized and explained everything in detail. They also responded to emails very quickly, which was extremely helpful.
