Take a class and go home with a skill you can use
Hands on learning is always best. Students who take my classes can expect to learn by doing. "I do not believe
anyone can learn Photoshop, computer software, digital camera, Web creation, or any other program or technology
if they haven't used it or actually practiced it in class. I teach usable useful skills."
