Instructor Details

Kate Silver

Who am I?

I'm  KateA Graphic Designer & Shoe Designer working at the UK's Leading Adobe training centre in London. I have worked with Jimmy Choo, Sophia Webster & Nicholas Kirkwood.


Designer of All things

Adobe Instructor, Graphic Designer, Fashion Designer, Footwear Designer - these are some of the diverse job titles I've held throughout my career as designer of all things. Because when you are a designer - you are never just that.


Where do you teach Adobe?

I've been working at the UK's leading Adobe Training Centre in London for over 4 years.  I have worked with and consulted Sony Music, Marks & Spencers, Nespresso, The White Company & more!


What is your teaching style?

My courses are a very hands-on step by step approach. I help you crawl before you can run. I love creating cool exercises to help you attune your skills.

Adobe is like any language (except it is visual) that needs to be nurtured and used and what better way than an Adobe Workshop?

By Priyanka Pandit on 10/27/2024

Great course. Concepts are clearly explained with examples

By Kazım Başar ÇIVGIN on 7/15/2024

She is the best teacher on Udemy.

By Tabitha Miller on 6/6/2024

Excellent course. I'm learning a lot of very useful skills. Well worth the money.

By Charlotte Bouche-Florin on 3/21/2024

Everything was well explained, in a logical order. Enough repetitions to make you learn but not get bored. Perfect!

By Maria Karwinsky on 2/18/2024

Great course, I like the way Kate is explaining every detail with her very smart Belgian Accent! Although I am quite familiar with InDesign as a book layouter I learned a lot new things which will be helpful for my work. I'd like some more information about book layout meaning a proper book with more than 200 pages: adjusting text to a grid, fixing images to a specific line (so it can't be accidently moved), turning it to an e-book in different formats e.g. epub, kindle, etc. Maybe I will by the first course as well if there is a special offer. Thanks a lot, Kate, well done!! Voilà :)

Great course! (But please make the next one 1080p )

By Juultje Oerlemans on 12/10/2023

I learned A LOT from this course. I started as a total beginner with the beginner course and after finishing this course I feel confident starting my own designs! And also I had a lot of fun doing the course... Thank you so much!
