Instructor
     
"I believe one could use Photoshop for eleven years and still learn something new the next day, so we try to end the class doing specific skill techniques that student identify."   Larry

Note:  I said that 12 years ago and am still learning.

After the fist class we usually "play" with class members photos while learning to enhance them.
