Reviews of professor Philip Krayna

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
The professor has 30+ years of experience working as a designer, and I think he really knows his stuff. He is not going to push you: if you want to succeed you have to try hard and motivate yourself, and I think that is the way it is in the real world if you work as a designer. He is patient and supports us and available to answer questions.

I really enjoyed this class! The projects are super fun and help you put the concepts learned into application. He's a great professor who will explain things in as much detail as needed. He takes attendance randomly and it really affects your grade if you aren't there, so try to come as much as possible!

IMO, he's on the chill and softer side, which isn't great for a competitive area like design. Got by with just BSing homework on hour before class. Didn't really learn that much unless I went beyond the work he assigns. However, he is a great resource, as he works in the industry alongside being a teacher. Would have preferred tougher feedback.

I enjoyed my time with Philip. Overall, he's a thoughtful and chill professor. His assignments and instructions are clear and direct. My only criticism is that his feedback can vary from useful to vague at times. Other than that, he's a great guy. Actually do your work, show up to class and show him your progress, and you'll get by fine.

No useful feedback! Just says "try it out" over and over and repeats your questionsthen gives you an arbitrary grade. Taking his class is the worst decision I've ever made for my graphic design student career. My design skills got worse! I learned more in 15 minutes of feedback with another prof than I did from a semester with Philip.

If you put in the effort, you will get a good grade. He is always available for office hours, and he wants you to succeed.
