As I wrote in the first installment on this subject, taking a class from a CZT (TM) (Certified Zentangle Teacher) as opposed to learning from a book or YouTube videos has many benefits.
In addition to those I already mentioned, a CZT has the resources to broaden your knowledge of and enjoyment of Zentangle.
CZTs have access to the full range of Zentangle tangles. If you look at Linda Farmer's annual e-book, TanglePatterns, some spots are blank. (See TanglePatterns here: Tangle Patterns.) These are the tangles that only CZTs have access to and which they can teach you in a class.
Another benefit is techniques. When I took the CZT seminar, I learned so much about how to be more successful in drawing the tangles, and tangles that seemed very difficult to me became just challenging and, ultimately, after some practice, somewhat easy.
So a CZT can broaden your knowledge of the official Zentangle patterns and teach you some techniques to make those that seem hard, more doable.
