Review

Thank you for all of your guidance. You may not realize this but I have taken 3 courses from you in the past 3 months and I am amazed at what I have learned. I essentially took these courses because I wanted to understand the software not because I had a specific goal in mind, Photography is a hobby. I never cease to be amazed at the capabilities of Photoshop. It is truly remarkable software. I find I want to learn even more and that I have just scratched the surface. I would like to be proficient and possibly use it professionally at some point (I'm actually retired so it would probably be part time at best if I ever attain that level of knowledge). I will take a Dreamweaver course next. Your courses are wonderful. The mix of exercises and assignments was an ideal way to learn and apply the techniques discussed in each lesson. The discussion areas were very helpful and I felt I received very good and timely responses to my questions. I worked much harder than I ever did in school. I admire your teaching ability and your incredible talent and expertise.
