I took 2 months of private classes with Jenine, and can confidently say I will be back. Jenine is a phenomenal instructor – patient and kind, all while being extremely knowledgeable and skilled in the craft. She knows all aspects of the industry and taught me so much more than just CAD. I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor to give me a solid foundation of something I had zero prior experience in. Overall, it was a great experience and would without a doubt recommend. Already looking forward to taking classes again with Jenine and the NYJDI in the future.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ive been a long time student at NYJDI and have taken multiple courses they have to offer. Both the instructors Jenine and Boris are extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of jewelry. They have helped me tremendously on my journey into the jewelry business from designing to fabricating they are extremely dedicated on helping each and every student reach their full potential, on many occasions there knowledge and insight has helped me complete both personal projects and work that was required for class. I can confidently say I wouldn't know half as much without their experience and guidance. I would recomened NYJDI to anybody interested in learning about jewelry design and fabrication!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What an incredible teacher! I initially sought her help for a CAD design class, and she ended up completely changing my life. She ignited my passion for jewelry design and gave me the confidence to pursue my dreams. Her expertise and kind heart make her more than a teacher—she's a mentor and a true friend dedicated to helping others succeed in the industry. She is a true GEM!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can't say enough good things about Jenine and NYJDI! I have been taking CAD classes for the last 6 months and with Jenine's help I have been able to create the most amazing pieces. Her knowledge and passion for the jewelry industry is second to none and I am so grateful to have found her. She is thorough and patient while teaching, and welcomes any and all to her classes with open arms. I can't recommend NYJDI enough; if you are curious about the jewelry industry in any capacity, this is the place!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Rapid rendering is an amazing class and is really great if you want to get started in the industry and improve your jewelry design skills. I had such a great experience and would highly recommend taking a class at NYIJD if your even thinking about it!! I feel so much more confident in my jewlery designing skills after taking this class. You will also get to learn from some of the best, most experienced instructors!!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve started the Rapid Rendering course with Jenine a couple of weeks ago and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. She’s super knowledgeable and nice and I feel like I’ve learnt so much so fast. Can’t wait to subscribe to the Advanced Rendering course!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I feel SO incredibly lucky to have found Jenine and NYJDI. I’ve been taking privates with Jenine for the past 3 months, and our classes are always my favorite part of my week. She has a methodological approach to teaching design that made it easy to grasp and progress quickly, and she’s empowered me to tap into creativity I didn’t know I had. After 12 weeks I’m already creating my first piece! She not only has wealth of knowledge about design and the jewelry industry, but she is also the warmest, kindest, most thoughtful teacher and mentor, and cares so deeply about her students’ successes. I am endlessly grateful for Jenine and can’t wait to continue learning from her.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been in the industry for 17 years, but had never learned how to technically draw, and it was always something I wish I could do, so one day I googled and signed up to one of the NYJDI classes and WOW I AM SO GLAD I DID! I don't know how I ever got by before! Jenine was my teacher for both the beginner and advanced courses I took, and she was warm, kind, patient, witty, just fun to be around, and my ability to sketch and communicate ideas went from 0-100 in a matter of weeks! I have now sold multiple pieces of jewelry from sketches alone, it just speeds up the whole process, and clients are always so amazed and in love with their sketches. It adds a level of professionalism and honestly, it was my favorite 2 hours of every week. I will be looking for more!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. i had an amazing experience learning lost wax carving with Michele. The owner Jenine was extremely helpful in answering all questions i had. if you are looking for a place to learn about jewelry and be surrounded by passionate kind people i would highly recommend this business!!
