Quick & Fun
Kristen presents well. She speaks clearly and has a pleasant voice. She explains AND walks the viewer through each segment. Informative, she shares lots of personal insight. I feel ready to tackle projects.
Canva and/or Stencil...Both are useful
I learned about a few more helpful sites. The images resource list is thorough. Thank you.
If you just downloaded Canva or Stencil
This course is great if you just downloaded one or both programs.
It takes you through the very basics of them.
Great Intro to CANVA & Stencil
Instructor is very knowledgeable and engaging. This a great course for students needing an introduction to the online graphics programs CANVA and Stencil. Also, the bonus list of all the online freebies is invaluable. I hadn’t heard of Buffer before. Thank you for the mini intro to this post planner. I will be signing up!
