Hey there,

I am very new to digital photography and therefore the digital darkroom as well. I would love to learn anything and everything there is to know about Photoshop. I have tried learning from the Photoshop for Windows & Macintosh CS2 book with no real success.

Unfortunately, I am due to have a baby on the 17th of October and as a result am likely to miss this course as much as I would like to be there.

Can you tell me how often these weekend courses are run? Or if there is someone who is willing to offer private tuition over the next few weeks? And at what cost?

Cheers

Hi Lovebug,

I have replied your email. Will keep you update on the courses.

We have also received requests from others who are keen in the course at other dates. Hence we are in the midst of reviewing the course to better cater to future participants.

 

[digicarrot]

Upon reviewing our course, we are making the following changes:

1. Class size
We are reducing the size of the class to about 4 persons so that we can give more attention to each attendee. Because of this change, we have to raise the course fee to $120 per person.

2. Change of dates
In addition, with the queries and requests of some who have expressed their interest in the course, we will reschedule the date of this weekend course over 2 Sunday mornings, 15th and 22nd Oct. This will give the participants more time to digest what they have learnt, for much contents will be packed within each session.

We think these changes will better aid the participants in their learning progress.
