    I studied Concept Design and Visualization course at JIDA for three years, and I can confidently say that this course was instrumental in shaping my career. The course was a perfect blend of theory and practice, and I learned a lot about designing concepts, visualizing ideas, and using 2D Design tools to bring my designs to life.

    One of the things I loved about these courses was the emphasis on hands-on projects. Throughout the program, I had the opportunity to work on numerous design projects, both individually and in groups. These projects were challenging, but they allowed me to hone my skills and apply what I had learned in the classroom.

    The instructors were fantastic as well. They were all experienced designers and were always willing to help and provide feedback. They were passionate about their work and their enthusiasm was contagious. I felt motivated to learn more and improve my skills with each class.

    Finally, I was able to land a job at Byjus as an Associate Art, thanks to the skills I acquired through this course. Byjus is a leading educational technology company, and I am proud to be a part of their team. The skills I acquired through these courses have been invaluable, and I am grateful to my institute and my instructors for providing me with such a solid foundation.

    In conclusion, I highly recommend the "Concept Design and Visualization" courses to anyone interested in pursuing a career in concept design. This course is well-designed, challenging, and will provide you with the skills you need to succeed in the industry as a concept artist.

    Monika ma'am has become a very good demonstrator over the years as she teaches us so well. She always tries to understand us by listening to everybody's problems. She is my inspiration, motivation, and of course a great helper. She encourages the student to do well, work hard and be consistent with our goal. She is patient and never avoids dealing with the same repetitive questions from students.

    Her way of teaching is exemplary. She creates materials such as PDFs and images that are related to the topics being taught, making it easier for us to understand complex concepts. Her use of relevant examples helps us to visualize the concepts and memorize the information more effectively which lasts longer in our minds.

    At the end of the day, she is a dazzling and magnificent teacher whom any student would love to have and trap knowledge from her.
