How do the lessons work?
1. What kind of equipment do you need?
You will need a PC with Adobe InDesign, Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop installed, and a working mouse.
You will also need to have two screens or monitors – one to work with and one to watch and follow the lesson itself. You can use a laptop with an added monitor, or a PC with two monitors. The monitor size is not too important here.
To get the intended experience, two monitors are necessary. The simplest way to go is to simply plug an added monitor into your laptop. Keep in mind that two monitors are a standard in graphic work.
2. Technical issues
You need a functioning computer with a stable internet connection to participate in online courses. A screen of at least 12” is recommended to make sure you can see all the details clearly. Don’t use a smartphone to watch the lessons – the screen size is too small to deliver the intended experience and lesson quality.
We will ask you to download a couple of free apps designed for comfortable online lessons before the start of the course. Have no fear, all details and simple installation guides will be provided to make sure everyone can do it.
3. Online course
The courses are designed for complete beginners and intermediate artists. In the video, your teacher will create their own work step-by-step, explaining all the moves.

There will also be small practical exercises, which are followed by the gradual creation of beautiful artworks.
4. Don't worry about missed lessons
You can choose how much time you will spend on the course and your work. Videos are available for you to watch back again. So you can work at your own pace and on your own time. The slides and other links will also be available to you.
5. How long is the course?
The course has 12 lessons and one additional lesson at the end
In total, the course has around 26 hours of great recorded instruction by experienced teachers. Available lesson recordings, tips, supplementary teaching materials and other content are included.
6. How much is it?
The price of the course is for 13 very detailed lessons from a video recorded by a professional tutor, including teaching materials, a database of lessons to be watched again for one year, and other benefits. You can also choose the option of chat support from the tutor, who will be online twice a week.
Price for an online course with feedback support is £190.
Price for an online course without feedback support is £140.
7. What else do I need?
To get the best experience, make sure you have enough space and a good light source (a desk lamp, at least), a desk, a chair.
As for the internet connection, one that can play YouTube videos well is more than enough. No special computer is needed – if it doesn’t lag too much during daily use, like web browsing or watching films online, you’re good to go!
