Classes

I teach classes because I enjoy helping people learn. I especially enjoy it when I can help someone get past a barrier, such as showing them that shooting in manual mode or using Photoshop isn’t that scary.

So just in case you’ve ever wondered if students really walk away with more skills, I certainly did! If it weren’t for your class, we would never have gotten great pictures of my daughter’s first dance recital! Thanks Again!

All of the exercises were WOW experiences. He would demonstrate a tool and turn us loose to play. It was a great confidence building experience. I would recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn Photoshop.

I have taken photography classes and a Photoshop class from Mike Pach, and I highly recommend him as an instructor. He is well organized, explains topics in an easy-to-understand way, and is very encouraging to his students. I also enjoy Mike's sense of humor and how he keeps the classes a lot of fun. I also appreciate that Mike has been willing to answer my questions, even after the class has ended.
