A few (kind!) words from Matt R: ★★★★★
“This is the best Photoshop course I have ever watched to get you from opening the software to fast results even if you just need to export layers from or slightly edit existing images……shortcuts and all the tips from experienced instructor really add to practical skills you should use every time when working with Photoshop.“

Most beginners don’t understand the importance of working quickly in software. I teach from a keyboard shortcut first approach to help teach Photoshop for Beginnersin a practical and useful way. Interested in shaving 10-20 minutes (or more) from your projects?

What’s Unique About this Photoshop for Beginners Course?

I’ve taken all of the trial and error parts from learning Photoshop as a beginner and packaged it into a course. I’m really adamant about teaching fast and effective methods. Don’t think that just because you’re a beginner that you can’t learn the quick ways from the start.

Many of the Photoshop for beginners tutorials I watch don’t always show the quickest method to get projects done. Even though there are multiple ways to get one task done, it’s helpful if you can save time.

I’ve used Photoshop for years with web design, image manipulation, social media marketing, and continue to push out Photoshop tutorials on YouTube. The trick? More work in the software = more learning! Not really a secret, huh?

Olaf Z. (cool name!) says this: ★★★★★
“I am working from time to time with Photoshop. It always takes me a lot of time to work on my photos. I thought it is too complicated to use it just once in a while and be effective. This course teaches effective methods to work with photoshop in just 3 hours.“

Don’t worry about the learning curve in the software. You’ll understand even more than just basic skills with Photoshop for Beginnersand how to effectively work in your projects.

Here are some examples of what to expect in the course:

Complete setup of the program from the start
How to set preferences for an efficient workflow
Creating a workspace for easier navigation
The importance of keyboard shortcuts
How to save time with exporting
