Andrew Pach
Hi! My name is Andrzej Pach (but Andrew is easier to say ^^) and I spend my daily time with graphic design, presentations, motion & animation, typography, video editing, and online teaching. Most of my work is done in Adobe After Effects & Microsoft PowerPoint 2019 / 2021 / 365 and Camtasia so naturally, this is the software I want to teach about and share my experience with. I have completed more than 5000 graphic projects for clients, mostly including video animations like intros, outros, and transitions for various YouTube channels & marketers. On Fiverr alone (a freelancing website), I have more than 3500 reviews and 4k+ finished jobs. I would like to share with you the knowledge that I was able to "stack up" during the process. I am always willing to help people out by enhancing their brands and projects.
Who am I?
I'm born in 1989, live in a small village in Poland, and graduated from my University in July 2014. A few years back, when I tried to find my "place" after getting hired to prepare a website, flyer, and business card for a local business in my area, I finally "felt it". Since then (2011) I have expanded my skills in this area by completing various graphic, website, and design-related projects. Places like the Warrior Forum, freelancing websites, and graphic contests across the web caught my interest and never let me go. I run my own company since April 2015.

This was a very well-done course. I especially appreciated the extensive tools section added. I could watch a lecture, and then actually practice what I just learned with all the tools provided. This was a very effective way for me to learn. Thank you, Andrew!
By Anonymized User on 11/5/2025
That was truly impressive—especially the way you addressed the tricky areas and streamlined the use of various elements. Your techniques and tactics were exceptional, helping us achieve perfection in a shorter time. This experience will definitely support me in future projects, making them smoother and more efficient, while also reducing turnaround time.
By Sharon Marshall on 10/17/2025
Exactly what I needed. Although I have used PowerPoint before, it was only for basic presentations. I needed a crash course in Animations for a project that I am working on and that's what I got, along with a load of useful tips and additional advanced subjects.

I am enjoying this course. I've used Microsoft products for years, but never learned PowerPoint as it seemed daunting. The instructor is taking the program and making it very approachable and easy to understand. I'll certainly look at taking other courses by him in the future.
By Kami L Martin on 9/26/2024
This was extremely informative and not overwhelming. The presenter gave the right amount of information without a considerable amount of repetition and was a good steward of time throughout. I will definitely use his courses in the future and recommend to others looking for skill in this area.
By Christina Caines on 9/6/2024
While fast paced, this course did everything Andrew said it would. It was a crash course--that we could pause--through this visualization tool. I learned several new things and got some review on others. I may end up taking one or more of his other courses as he was quite engaging.
By Babu Kothandaraman on 9/3/2024
The course content was good and would be useful to beginners and may be a few tricks for advanced users. However may be since its crash course the tutor pace and voice modulation was bit fast- it could have been bit slower, overall good course.
By Dorothy Mthembu on 5/16/2024
I thoroughly enjoyed this course. Andrew explained each of the concepts very well and had good examples and illustrations to drive the points made. The way he touched on other attributes just so we could get a feel or a bit of an understanding of what MS PowerPoint is capable of doing and has to offer, that was very helpful. I'd certainly join other courses that Andrew does. Thank you.
By Jim Colquist on 8/3/2023
A very useful and well-done Power Point crash course. I have been using PPT for years without any real training...this short course gave me a whole bunch of tools I never knew existed, but I am not sure how I lived without! Well worth the time invested. Thanks Andrew, you are a great instructor.
By Jerry Appelbaum on 2/9/2023
The course was information packed. The instructor leads through the PowerPoint program with practical guidance to familiarize and maximize the features in real world examples. The pacing was quick and easy to follow with some repetition that helped build skills as the elements became more advanced. Well work the time. If you need to get up to speed or refresh your PowerPoint skills quickly with practical know-how I recommend it.
