As an educator, this is the worst course I've ever seen. The content in this course is all over the place and the actual designs created are hideous.
The first half of the course is an introduction to Photoshop but the author mixes the most basic concepts with advanced application shortcuts. He clearly did not put the students' needs first when creating this.
There are no clear objectives to his teaching. Or maybe he has objectives but never meets them. I don't know which is worse.
Go on Youtube and find what you're looking for instead.
