Drawing Lessons Testimonials from Parents & Students

Stories from families who experienced EduPoint drawing lessons firsthand

My 7-year-old initially was confused about which class to join. Kak Annisa was incredibly patient — her first lesson was just playing with colors while telling stories. Three months later my daughter asked on her own: 'Mama, drawing lesson today?'. Wonderful to see her find a healthy hobby.

Ibu Heni M.

Parent of Grade 1 Elementary Student

Child draws 3x/week consistently

We live in Magelang and quality art studios are hard to find here. EduPoint's online lessons were the solution — Kak Indah teaches from Yogyakarta via Zoom. My 10-year-old can now do simple watercolor landscapes.

Ibu Ulfah R.

Parent of Grade 5 Elementary Student

First watercolor landscape completed

I'm 13 and I love anime. Finding an anime drawing teacher in my city was tough. Kak David teaches from Jakarta via online, and he knows lots of my favorite mangaka references. Six months in, my OC now has a consistent personal style.

Niko S.

Grade 7 Middle School Student

Five OCs with consistent style

My child needed a portfolio for art high school admissions in Jakarta. Kak Benediktus helped curate works from scratch — picking charcoal as the medium that highlights my child's strengths. Got admitted with a tight, clean portfolio.

Ibu Septiani T.

Parent of Art High School Prep Student

Admitted to Jakarta art high school

I'm a 15-year-old and used to think watercolor was just for little kids. After lessons with Kak Sharleen, I realized watercolor can rival watercolor portraits in complexity. Now preparing for a school exhibition with watercolor works.

Anisa I.

Grade 10 High School Student

3 pieces for school exhibition

I signed my 9-year-old up — he was initially shy. Kak Mahendra had him drawing a robot-themed comic strip — my child became excited and chatty explaining the story. He now has his own ongoing comic series.

Pak Dedy N.

Parent of Grade 4 Elementary Student

Child created own comic series
