Course Description

A complete Adobe Photoshop CC course for beginners that will teach you all the Fundamentals of Photoshop by practicing and doing exercises.

All you need to start this course is the Adobe Photoshop software and nothing else, you don't need to have any prerequisite knowledge.

Learn by Doing

This is not a course where you can just sit down, watch and absorb information. You don't really learn anything that way, instead, I want you to learn by doing.

We will get started by exploring the Photoshop app, navigating and moving around then we will go straight to doing exercises.

With every new exercise, we will discover a new Tool or a new Technique in photoshop.

Tools and Features that we are going to discover and practice include :

  • Crop

  • Brush

  • Layers

  • Text

  • Selections

  • Mask

  • Retouching

  • Animation

We will start by simple and easy exercises and as we advance, things will gradually become more and more challenging.

In the last section of the course we will discover some Advanced Photoshop techniques used by expert graphic designers and retouchers.

But it's very important that you do the exercises and I can't stress this enough.

If you are planning to just watch the course the same way you watch Netflix, then you probably shouldn't waste your time.

My Promise to You :

If you are dedicated and do all the exercises along with me, at the end of the course, I guarantee you will know all the basics and will be able to use Photoshop with ease.

With more practice and advanced learning you can become a master and work as a professional.

Excellent explanation. Unfortunately, the instructor used an older version of Photoshop. Some features, as explained in the lecture, don't match the latest version. You'll still have to use YouTube tutorials on the latest version, in addition to this course. I higly recommend updating this course to the latest version of Photoshop.

I am a complete novice at photoshop and already I have learnt lots. His teaching is really simple and to the point and I like the fact that I can follow along and do the exercises myself.

I took Emir's After effect course first which helped me a lot, so purchased this one too and he met the expectations as always. This is a very basic course for absolute beginners but rest assured if you practice all the exercises you will navigate through the software with ease. Thank You!

It is a great, useful course. You can learn step by step every main function of the program. The explanations are clear and easy to follow, while the exercises, easy to complete. Thank you, Emir.

The course was easy and very informative. Take in account that it is for very beginners and only technical knowledge….. The only thing at the animation part, smth was working differently on my Photoshop. It wasn’t allowing me to shorten the dragon line at the beginning. So i just watched the rest of the video.

The instructor has explained the Concepts and Tools well with Examples. The Exercises are easy to do, they are not overly complex where one gives up. Perfect course for a beginner.

By Varunavi Sharma on 3/26/2023

The course itself was great and what I have accomplished so far was exceptionally good. I had to watch the videos a couple of times to understand fully, but other than that, this is a good watch-and-do course.

By Michael Hyland on 3/10/2023

Very well done course. The examples are well planned to take advantage of a lot of the features in photoshop. Other tutorials have examples, but I think a lot of effort went into planning the examples in this one over most others.

I would say it was more my computer skills that caused me problems, also I have Windows 11, and a recently updated Photoshop and Lightroom and did not see the same screen shots on my computer. In some cases once I figured it out it might have been better than the system shown. I made it all the way through the course and will redo it a few times and am sure it will make me a better operator.

Great teacher. As a complete beginner who was intimidated by the whole Photoshop process,, I found Mr. Emir's step-by-step illustrations and guidelines easy to follow. I learned so much. I like his method of teaching and our participating at the same time. Its a great feeling and achievement to finally be able to grasp and complete a task by oneself. ^_^. I wish he had more Photoshop lessons I could participate in, as his is the simplest and most beneficial method I have found. Many thanks. Rosemary xx
