Course testimonials:

  • A well paced, well structured introduction to Photoshop. Tirza was highly organised and very patient with all of us. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is looking to enhance their photography or design skills.
  • Really enjoyed it, learned quite a bit, wish the course was a little longer.
  • The course is jampacked with information...It could be good to have a bit more time to practise what we learned in the course, same content but 8 weeks long
