Product reviews for Photoshop CS5 Fundamentals

I have been using numerous versions of PhotoShop for many years, since CS2, and several versions of PhotoShop Elements…I can honestly say, as a former teacher myself, that your approach to instructing PhotoShop is by far the most effective of any I have seen. Your ability to break each difficult technique into simple steps, with clear though intricate, easy to follow exercises, followed by assignments that give students enough guidance that they can experience success at each stage of discovery --while encouraging guided experimentation with each process -- is an example of true teaching mastery. It is obvious, as you note, that you have been teaching PhotoShop for a long time, with a passion for helping others share in your passion.

This was a well done course. I was very pleased with how much we covered. I had taken a Photoshop course in the past. It has been years and I wanted to refresh my skills...and I'm very glad I did. This course covered everything I learned in the past and significantly more.

I really enjoyed this course! As a primarily self-taught Adobe user working in the graphic design and marketing field, many of the tools and techniques taught will be huge time savers for me. Thank you for a great class. I look forward to taking more!

This is my first online course and its quality exceeded my expectations. The teacher truly is a Photoshop guru with highly creative, tried-and-true recipes/exercises that are useful and fun...I felt a sense of achievement when I completed the course and I am inspired to take more photography and Adobe courses, a very cool concept...I am grateful to Sherry London for sharing her talents in this online course that gave me focus and energy for the last six weeks...Many thanks to Sherry London!

I have to admit I was nervous to take an online course on a subject as visual as Photoshop. I thought for sure I would have difficulty following along with the text and direction. But Sherry London surprised me and really made everything in this course comprehensible and straight forward. I'll be practicing from her lessons to get the hang of it. Thanks so much!

This was an amazing experience. This course was rich in content and I love the online format. I can come back as many times as i want to review the content and when I do --depending on my own time constrains-- I always find it worth doing. So many thanks.

Several years ago I took my first Photoshop course. I now realize that that course was not up to the standards of this course and this instructor. This is the introductory course that I wish I had taken years ago. Althoug,h some of the material is more in-depth, it is worth the extra time that it takes to get through.

The instructor and assistant, Beth, are responsive, intelligent, patient, and friendly. They created a relaxed, no stress opportunity to learn a rather large software program because of their enjoyable, dedicated teaching style.

I so well remember your CS3 courses - I took both the beginner and intermediate courses. I enjoyed them both immensely and I was very anxious to take another course with you. This time around, I must say I have been even more challenged!
Verified Student
I wanted to say that I have been completely and totally excited about the entire course. I've been taking hit-and-miss Photoshop classes for about two years, signed up for the monthly subscription at Lynda.com and wasted a LOT of money (don't tell my husband) taking some of their courses.  I much prefer your teaching style and have learned more in this course than I learned in all of the other classes--and you make it fun. Thanks very much! Will be taking your intermediate class for sure.

Product reviews for Learn to Play the Guitar

You've exceeded my expectations!  I've really enjoyed this class.  I didn't realize that so much could be offered online.  The video demonstrations made it all possible.

I was energized by the course content and the easy going style and humor of Edward Burns. He brought the course to life and made the course a terrific experience. This is the best online course I ever took. If you ever offer a next level of guitar playing, count me in. Thank you.

I loved Mr. Burns writing style and presentation of this course. I was wondering how a guitar course would be effectively taught online and found that this format worked. I really enjoyed the notes of encouragement as well. I thought that there was a lot of material covered for an introductory course. I’ve had folk guitar training in the past as well as many years in singing groups, so I was very familiar with much the material beforehand but was looking for a course specifically in classical guitar…It was perfect for me…Thank you!

I have had folk guitar training in the past as well as many years in singing groups, so I was very familiar with much the material beforehand but was afraid that all of the material might be overwhelming for a strict beginner. It was perfect for me. Thank you!

I just want to say that this has been amazing. Like others, I'd love to see a follow-up class to this. I like your writing style, anyone from novice to accomplished musician could learn something from the class. I was very confident coming into it. I learned I had a a lot of bad habits to break and tendencies to overcome...Thanks!

After years of no formal training, I feel like I am on the road from playing notes to making music. This was very enjoyable and helpful! Thanks for helping to improve the quality of my life!

I have taken numerous online courses and this was my all-time favorite! Every portion of the course was excellent! The video and audio instruction, lessons, assignments, discussion area and resources were all very informative and helpful. I would highly recommend this course to others. Thanks to Edward Burns for inspiring me to continue learning classical guitar!

Awesome course!  I'm learning so much. This is a perfect no stress way of learning. I have been around guitars and their players all my life. No one has ever linked together stretching and it's importance in gaining agility and relieving strain during practice. Thanks!

The instructor was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the subject matter. He made an effort to ensure students did not get discouraged. I played guitar in high school and decided this year to pick up the hobby again. This course gave me a great foundation that helped to develop my guitar skills…I definitely hear the progress in my guitar playing after taking this course.

I have attempted other guitar courses that only teach chords. I gave up because of not understanding and immediately lost interest. This course was the best. It covered every question that I have ever had about how to play the guitar correctly, and I can read music now. I am 55 years old and this was my first real guitar course. I am playing the guitar and enjoying it. If anyone out there is wondering whether you can learn to play the guitar at your age, the answer is YES, YOU CAN. Take this course and you will be amazed at how good you can be at playing the guitar.
