Choose quality in learning
so you can show quality in your work!
Your Choices > | ![]() (or other reputable instructors) | A classroom training near you | Cheap online marketplace courses | Free YouTube & Google tutorials |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Value & Experience (for students just starting out) | Great Beginner program, A-Z MasterClasses, student community | More personal experience, with higher accountability, but you can't go at your own pace | Some really good instructors, but there is an overwhelming selection and no guidance whatsoever | No curation, learning good things in the wrong time may hurt your progress and motivation |
Value & Experience (for more advanced students) | Pro community, advanced webinars, creative projects | Much fewer advanced trainings, high chance of no added value | No real progression here just an endless library of promising course titles | If you find a good channel and already have solid grounds you may find great inspiration |
Total cost in a Year | You can tie your fee to your XP level paying month-to-month $ - $$ | Live, classroom-based training is the most expensive option by far $$$ - $$$$ | Marketplaces are cheap but there is little quality control $ | Nothing is really free, you pay in time of searching pieces of info |
Depth of knowledge you gain (beyond how-to skills) | Insider tips, design principles covered in great detail, by a highly accomplished designer and veteran instructor | Progress at the pace of the group, little time to cover more than how-to-do skills, | Anyone can upload a course on any subject, there are some really good teachers, but most keep their prime content to their own site | There is so much content it is hard to tell, you need to know exactly what you are looking for to find the gems |
Finding exactly what you need | Some niche application or exotic subjects are not covered, but all that a graphic- or motion designer needs | There is far less variety and levels, depending on where you live there might be none | These marketplaces have a huge library favor courses you might find exotic subjects also but it's not easy to spot bad quality | The opposite, you will be shown a great lot of distractions and click-baits that you don't need |
Getting help when you are stuck | Great engaged student community, fast email support | Live help during the training with some follow up, but you can't hold the class for long | Usually at this price there is little help in short answers if any at all | The search algorithm is your best bet, in smaller channels you may get short answers |
Career advancement | Insider tips, career advice, portfolio friendly project briefs and exercises, student collaborations | For working in-house, sometimes the certificate from a reputable training center is enough For freelancing there is little help | You might find tips or content on the subject in general, but beyond that you are on your own | No credibility of a formal training, no curation or expiry date on content, very high risk of finding bad advice that take you off track |

Finally a comprehensive tutorial of how to navigate Ai! I have designed with many programs but never needed to understand and use Vector graphics until recently. As a newbie I have been struggling with learning and creating in these design spaces! I am still slowly getting through these courses... but wow, what a difference it is making so far. I am actually learning !

I know I'm only in week 1. But I have done more with photoshop this week than ever done previously. And I never thought I would grasp the essentials of indesign and illustrator as quickly as I have (because I have never used them before). Martin is a fabulous instructor. I was wary about taking the 'design' step. I am so glad I have - after this week I am A LOT more confident of smashing this. Amazing Martin - thank you!

The Yes I’m a designer team are hands on, very professional, talented and down to earth individuals. I have already completed quite a few courses of theirs through udemy and skillshare. I have now gained enough confidence so I’ve enrolled as a student and already can see how I’m about to have a great journey as a Yes Pro Student. I already feel that the monthly fee will be worth every single penny. The Facebook group is friendly and full of talent and the webinars are great to watch. Looking forward to being more involved soon.

Very professional and didactically very well explained learning content. Even though English is not my native language, I can easily follow the exercises. I have been working with Adobe software for 20 years, but mostly with Photoshop. The courses on the other Adobe programs are an absolute enrichment for my further education.

YES I’m a Designer masterclasses are really the way to go if you want to follow the career of an upcoming graphic designer. Knowledgeable, trained staff and kind humans are always there to help you the best they can, and provide to-the-point advice. The community they’ve built is also a great place to share your work and grow your skills by receiving and giving constructive feedback. I’m happy as I watch my portfolio becoming stronger week by week!

Martin and his team do all the heavy lifting for you - they provide tutorials, projects, recommend design resources, and give constructive feedback, so you can focus on actually making great work, and not on endlessly searching the web for the right information. Everything you need to know about being a designer is all under one roof. Clear, concise, and professional tutorials, along with substantive, friendly feedback on student work, makes Yes I’m A Designer the best resource for those who want to be a graphic designer, imo.

The teacher speaks very slowly and clearly, so I was able to understand everything even if I'm Italian. I followed the Photoshop and Illustrator courses and I can say they're well structured and teach you all the necessary things you need to start using these softwares in a professional way. I'm satisfied and suggest all graphics enthusiasts to enroll in Yes I'm a Designer courses.

I have been working on the Indesign and Illustrator courses and they are excellent. They are very complete and the level of detail of the courses is great for anyone trying to get a handle on Adobe products. The examples and the student exercises help me understand the concepts. I have gone to one webinar and felt that Martin is knowledgeable and makes a real connection with the repeating students that submit work for him to review and mentor them.

Professional and engaging course. Some of the tips were a review for me, as I took many classes with Adobe products back in college. More of the newer features were of great value to me, as well as getting a refresher on some shortcuts and less used features such as 3D or video. Quizzes were a great way to make sure I got all the content too.

I purchased the Illustrator Master Class and am nearing the end of the course. I have really enjoyed Martin's clear and straight to the point explanations. I have tried other courses but never found them to be of this caliber. I would certainly recommend either Illustrator, or any of his other courses for that matter, to anyone looking to get up to date with Adobe applications. Sr. Sabina Tokyo
