Reviews of professor Wesley Terpstra

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
He's a great teacher. His lectures are short and sweet and he's very helpful with feedback. He keeps the class entertaining but he is a little strict with attendance and late work.

Absolutely loved this dude! He was a very fun professor to have. His teaching was straight to the point and very easy to understand, his demos also helped a lot. Never knew how much growth I had in his class. Also, his sense of humor is absolutely hilarious! It's the type of humor a Gen Z'er would appreciate.

super fun professor! terpstra is great in drawing 101 and his class is pretty heavy on the guided studio time, your gonna really get into the meat of your projects which is awesome if you really want to enjoy the process and do an in depth dive into the techniques!

I don't think you could pay me to say anything bad about Terpstra. His classes are so engaging, educational, and calming. He's a great teacher and person to talk to. He's very funny, and the way he navigates his curriculum is so beneficial to his students. He has taught us such a correct and insightful way to see and draw the human form.

Amazing class. He will grade you good if he can tell you are trying to learn. Ask questions after critiques cause that's when he will give you specific personalized feedback. Funny teacher, showed us his walk in song

Terpstra has some dark humor, but it makes class time go by fast. He sang us a song by Hannah Diamond and has pushed me to create art that I never thought I would! He is accessible outside of class and is extremely talented! I learned so much in this class. TAKE IT!!!!

He's very knowledgeable and hilarious. Fairly easy class but he will absolutely roast you if you don't put in any effort or try in his class. he doesn't care if drawing isn't your strong suit but he can definitely tell if you don't try. He's super fair with grading too

I thought that Prof Terpstra's class was both calming and educational. He was constantly cracking "dad jokes" and puns throughout the semester, and started every class with a simple "We are here now, leave all the outside stresses behind", which I personally enjoyed. Additionally, the final project was easily the most enjoyable project this year.

Really enjoyed his class!! He never puts too much work on to a student either. Every now and then he would make jokes but it doesn't distract from the lesson!! He can be extremely honest and a bit harsh when critiquing but I truly felt it helped me improve. He WILL know when you are drawing incorrectly and will correct you.
