The school believes in hiring only the best to groom the next generations of leaders, having employed professionals from innovative companies such as Adobe, Google, Microsoft, IBM, and PayPal.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seeing as high-quality education is the core of success, it is crucial for students to learn about the individuals entrusted to facilitate learning in a particular schooling environment.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only will students get to know more about the instructors, but they will also get to evaluate what the instructors can offer, how they can help them achieve their career goals, and how their expertise can benefit them.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe student experience starts as soon as an individual makes the decision to enroll at [sic] GA. We ensure everything is as thoughtful and supportive as possible. To do this, the Student Success team partners closely with instructors and career coaches to act as the bridge that brings the full student experience together,\u201d the school said in its <a href=\"https:\/\/generalassemb.ly\/blog\/?utm_source=career-karma&amp;utm_medium=affiliate-lead-gen-global\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Student Outcomes Report.<\/a>\u00a0<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The quality of the teachers speaks volumes of the quality of the education itself. That is why General Assembly strives to employ only top-tier instructors who are talented in their respective fields. To date, the school has close to 1,000 staff across its 39 locations in seven countries, with over 1,500 active instructors of its immersive and part-time programs.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, we will get a glimpse into General Assembly\u2019s classroom experience through the stories of four instructors: Kayte Demont, Michael Valeri, Chana Messer, and Vance Wallace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-kayte-demont-ga-environment-sparks-powerful-conversations\"><a href=\"https:\/\/generalassemb.ly\/instructors\/kayte-demont\/5348#:~:text=Kayte%20Demont%20is%20a%20content,and%20now%20lives%20in%20Denver.?utm_medium=affiliate-lead-gen&amp;utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=2020-q3-affiliate-lead-gen-[global]-career-karma-affiliate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Kayte Demont<\/a>: \u201cGA environment sparks powerful conversations.\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-06.png\" alt=\"Kayte Demont Infographic\n\" class=\"wp-image-21504\" srcset=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-06.png 1020w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-06-768x514.png 768w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-06-770x515.png 770w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-06-20x13.png 20w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-06-385x257.png 385w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> Kayte Demont believes in creating genuine connections between brands and consumers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/generalassemb.ly\/instructors\/kayte-demont\/5348#:~:text=Kayte%20Demont%20is%20a%20content,and%20now%20lives%20in%20Denver.?utm_medium=affiliate-lead-gen&amp;utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=2020-q3-affiliate-lead-gen-[global]-career-karma-affiliate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Kayte Demont<\/a> wears multiple hats. This Maine-born creative is a content creator, photographer, artist, and more.

The blog featured engaging content tailored to help bolster its brand partners and remained active until January this year.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMass Musings (MM) took many shapes over the years but the majority of its ethos was content creation and creative community. I was afforded some incredible opportunities through MM, working with General Assembly being one of them. MM came up during the social media\/ Instagram boom and it&#8217;s been a wild ride of learning and evolving ever since!\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With over 13,000 followers on Instagram and over 20,000 more on TikTok, Ms. Demont truly understands the power of content creation and the positive effect it can trigger. This social media guru, however, remained humble and said she owed her success to the platform given by General Assembly.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI tell every class I teach that GA is a huge factor in the success of my professional career. They aren&#8217;t afraid to think out of the box and I believe that environment sparks powerful conversations that propel new ideas and solutions. It&#8217;s amazing to have a network of people who are doing what they are doing,\u201d she said.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/generalassemb.ly\/?utm_medium=affiliate-lead-gen&amp;utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=2020-q3-affiliate-lead-gen-[global]-career-karma-affiliate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">General Assembly<\/a>, Ms. Demont shared her journey and advice on how to navigate the world of social media without losing one\u2019s true self. She also teaches students how to engage with the audience, particularly through writing and photography.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy personal approach to teaching is to run through the overview of the platform and then I try to leave about an hour for questions. It&#8217;s important to me to have the class be conversational as there are so many different experience levels.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cUsually, the students end up teaching each other and brainstorming far beyond class time. It feels awesome to be able to foster that type of learning and connection,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms. Demont said one of her favorite things about teaching at General Assembly is the opportunity to watch her students grow their online presence by utilizing the skills taught in class.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA handful of my students have stayed connected and it&#8217;s been incredible to watch them grow their skills and businesses!\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-michael-valeri-when-people-feel-empowered-they-retain-information-to-a-greater-degree-nbsp\"><a href=\"https:\/\/generalassemb.ly\/instructors\/michael-valeri\/13994?utm_medium=affiliate-lead-gen&amp;utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=2020-q3-affiliate-lead-gen-[global]-career-karma-affiliate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Michael Valeri<\/a>: \u201cWhen people feel empowered, they retain information to a greater degree.\u201d&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-04.png\" alt=\"Michael Valeri Infographic\" class=\"wp-image-21505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-04.png 1020w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-04-768x514.png 768w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-04-770x515.png 770w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-04-20x13.png 20w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-04-385x257.png 385w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> Michael Valeri enjoys leaving a positive impact on someone&#8217;s life<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This senior analytics professional has had an illustrious portfolio, with over seven years of experience mining, refining, and presenting big data across multiple Fortune 500 companies including Amazon, Microsoft, T-Mobile, GoDaddy, Expedia, and Big Fish Games.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He believes that everyone has the right to understand how their data is being used, regardless of their technical aptitude, experience, age, or background.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI started teaching when I worked as a Finance Analyst at Amazon where I worked closely with incoming interns. I found the experience to be so rewarding that I wanted to take my education skills to the next level with GA,\u201d he said.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At General Assembly, Mr. Valeri has taught a variety of topics like <a href=\"https:\/\/generalassemb.ly\/education\/intro-to-data-analytics?utm_medium=affiliate-lead-gen&amp;utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=2020-q3-affiliate-lead-gen-[global]-career-karma-affiliate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Data Analytics<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/generalassemb.ly\/students\/workshops-and-events?dateType=any&amp;event=true&amp;format=classes-workshops&amp;topic=8&amp;where=new-york-city&amp;workshop=true&amp;utm_source=career-karma&amp;utm_medium=affiliate-lead-gen-global\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Excel<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/generalassemb.ly\/education?dateType=any&amp;event=true&amp;format=classes-workshops&amp;topic=8&amp;where=new-york-city&amp;workshop=true&amp;utm_medium=affiliate-lead-gen&amp;utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=2020-q3-affiliate-lead-gen-[global]-career-karma-affiliate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">SQL<\/a>, and even a class on how to live without a smartphone. His personal approach to teaching is to make students feel seen and heard, and he is a firm believer in empowering them with information and confidence.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI want my students to feel like their point of view and questions matter. I often say I\u2019m a confidence coach that just so happens to teach SQL. If you preach confidence to your students, it will transfer to all other aspects of their lives.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recalling his proudest moment as an instructor, the tech expert said it was when he helped a student land a promotion at Amazon after being told by her employer that she needed to brush up on her SQL and Tableau skills in order to qualify.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBy the end of the 10-week bootcamp (<a href=\"https:\/\/generalassemb.ly\/students\/courses\/data-analytics-short-course?utm_source=career-karma&amp;utm_medium=affiliate-lead-gen-global\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Data Analytics part-time<\/a>), she was promoted and is now the owner of her organization&#8217;s dashboards. She celebrated by bringing in a pie. Best dessert ever,\u201d he gushed.\u00a0<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being an industry veteran himself, Mr. Valeri said he admired the practicality that is ingrained in General Assembly\u2019s curricula as it proves to be extremely helpful for students when they move to the big league.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe most common complaint I hear from students who learn Data Analytics through higher education is the lack of application. You\u2019ll spend a whole lot of time talking about SQL, the pros and cons of the language, and the buzzwords associated with it. At General Assembly, you\u2019ll actually architect and write code from scratch. That\u2019s what employers care about&#8230;execution, not theory.\u201d&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr. Valeri said he personally felt that the most rewarding part about teaching is being a part of someone\u2019s journey.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cKnowledge transfers between people and each one of us is part of a giant chain that never stops growing,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-chana-messer-ga-has-a-unique-environment-that-makes-students-and-instructors-feel-like-it-s-their-home\"><a href=\"https:\/\/generalassemb.ly\/instructors\/chana-messer\/4995?utm_medium=affiliate-lead-gen&amp;utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=2020-q3-affiliate-lead-gen-[global]-career-karma-affiliate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Chana Messer<\/a>: \u201cGA has a unique environment that makes students and instructors feel like it\u2019s their home.\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-01.png\" alt=\"Chana Messer\u2019s Infographic\n\" class=\"wp-image-21506\" srcset=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-01.png 1020w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-01-768x514.png 768w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-01-770x515.png 770w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-01-20x13.png 20w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-01-385x257.png 385w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> Chana Messer is fond of GA\u2019s easy and friendly environment<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Chana Messer is far from a novice, having taught at the tertiary level for over 30 years in the fields of Fine Art and Digital Imaging. She has taught at numerous prestigious institutes including USC, UCLA Extension, and Parsons School of Design. She has also given training to employees of Walt Disney Company. Mattel, Inc. Warner Bros. IBM, and Apple, among others.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms. Messer is an Adobe Certified Expert, Adobe Partner, Adobe Community Professional, a member of the Adobe Freelance Team, Adobe Education Leader, and an Adobe User Group Manager. As such, she has been invited to present at Adobe events across the U.S. and overseas. Over the past few years, she has also been a part of the team writing the Adobe certification tests.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, it comes as no surprise that this Adobe whizz is entrusted to teach Adobe Applications such as Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign at General Assembly.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI started teaching in GA about five years ago. I am a designer and an artist; my classes are geared for art directors, designers, photographers, social media, and marketers. Lately, my students also come from the UX design classes since they need to know design applications.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to teaching, Ms. Messer exercises a hands-on approach with her students, adding that this is the best method to create art and simultaneously understand the software.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMy approach to teaching is to be as clear as possible, prepare the outline for classes, send the students my class files ahead of time, and make sure I teach hands-on.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt is simple: share my knowledge with the students, talk about real-life examples, and explain to them everything even if it takes more than one time to go over a topic.&nbsp; My goal is to make them understand the topic and the content and be ready to create their own material.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ms. Messer said although she also teaches at other schools, she enjoys the environment at General Assembly and the free communication policy that it employs.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI love the students that come through my classes. They are interesting and come from different spectrums of the design world. It is never boring! I always get to know new people and at times I stay connected to them and help them later with their career.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI love the easy and friendly environment. The way the campus is arranged is perfect for students to learn, share their ideas, and relax if they need it between sessions.\u201d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When she is not teaching, Ms. Messer works independently at her design studio Mac in Art, offering creative consulting, technical skills, and art direction. She contributes to the creative community with tutorials, advice, and resources through her programs, webinars, and industry events.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-vance-wallace-ga-students-are-always-curious-eager-to-learn\"><a href=\"https:\/\/generalassemb.ly\/instructors\/vance-wallace\/4986?utm_medium=affiliate-lead-gen&amp;utm_source=careerkarma&amp;utm_campaign=2020-q3-affiliate-lead-gen-[global]-career-karma-affiliate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Vance Wallace<\/a>: \u201cGA students are always curious, eager to learn.\u201d<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-05.png\" alt=\"Vance Wallace\u2019s Infographic\" class=\"wp-image-21507\" srcset=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-05.png 1020w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-05-768x514.png 768w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-05-770x515.png 770w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-05-20x13.png 20w, https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Portraits-05-385x257.png 385w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> Vance Wallace says General Assembly\u2019s strength is the variety of classes that it offers.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Vance Wallace is not your average techie.

He also said that he loves the feedback he received from students.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m certainly always excited to tell people about my partnership with GA and my positive experience sharing what I have learned with the students there.
