Helen Breakdown instructions of basic modeling help me get the idea of what it takes to get started and what you need to know walking in the door. for those who don't have experience she has given you a vision verbally of what needs to happen. she had drawn a picture with her words on how modeling begin and what it takes, she's an awesome teacher and has given valid information that would have cost me thousands of dollars to get it but I got it for the free thanks Helen keep up the good work"
