I have relatives and friends that went to Parsons School of Design in New York. It's a whole other level, and of course to be accepted for enrollment requires a very strong portfolio. It's funny that none of the Parsons attendees (They didn't all graduate.) actually work in the visual arts, but are successful in music and business.

I believe that there is this kind of thinking that you can teach people to do anything, and that is crazy thinking, especially in creative pursuits. People do have innate talents.
