This Photoshop course was so incredibly helpful for me! I really appreciated how Melissa took the time to answer each and everyones questions fully and made sure we were all caught up before moving on. The layout and structure of this course was very easy to follow and learn with. The platform that this course was taught on made learning much easier than I expected. I will definitely recommend taking a course through this company!

My instructor Tim was great at teaching the Photoshop, and very professional over the course or three days. He created an atmosphere for learning that was both comfortable and easy to understand. I would defiantly take another online course as long as the other instructors meet up to the same professionalism as Tim was. Thanks!

Melissa was very knowledgeable but still stopped to answer all of our questions. Didn't feel like you were being "talked down to" at all which was refreshing. The screen-sharing help was seamless which really made the learning process even better. Photoshop is so visual it helps to do it while you watch. Lots of really amazing tools and tricks I will immediately be able to use, as well as some that I still need to practice (but now at least have a base). Wonderful course and instruction - I will definitely be recommending to others!
