Here is an excerpt of an interview with Sreedevi:
Q 1. How and when you started to work as an Art & Craft Trainer?
Ans. I learned few handicrafts as a hobby during my school days and I continued learning handicrafts from different Masters out of passion without any intention of becoming a trainer. I used to give my handicrafts like artificial flower bouquets, handmade jewellery, home décor items etc, as gifts to my friends. One of my close friends asked me to start classes on handicrafts. That’s how I started my career as an Art & Craft Trainer. My friend was my friend who inspired me to take Art & Craft classes. Then I came across UrbanPro.com and started my career.
Q 2. What do you think makes a great Art & Craft Trainer?
Ans. In my view inner passion and self-motivation makes a great artist. Commitment to work and sincerity in what we do makes all the difference. Never hide your techniques from students.
Q 3. How you came across UrbanPro?
Ans. I was searching for a website that would provide me an opportunity to teach students online. And during my search I came across UrbanPro.com (It was Thinkvidya.com then).
Q 4. How UrbanPro platform helped you to expand your Art & Craft Classes?
Ans. When I came in contact with UrbanPro.com, I started teaching many students. Even I got an opportunity of taking handicrafts classes in IITM. I don’t think any other portal of this category is as successful as UrbanPro.com. UrbanPro has definitely become a platform for my success. My heartfelt thanks to UrbanPro.com!

Ans. Almost 70% - 80%.
