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 |

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.

When I started these courses 5 months ago, I had no experience in graphics but thanks to Martin’s lessons and his advice, I've really learnt a lot. Each course is well organised and clearly explained and this has definitely given me confidence of developing the skills I needed. Besides, I love the fact that he dedicates his time to review our works and gives a lot of precious insights. I'm really happy to be part of this group.

Martin is a fantastic teacher. I have been using Illustrator for 25 years, but often felt that I didn't know it particularly deeply, and wasn't using it as efficiently or fully as I'd like. I learned so much from the Illustrator Masterclass - part of a large collection of courses included in the subscription - and immediately started working better and more confidently as a result. I feel like I know the software much better and was surprised to discover whole tools and techniques that I didn't previously know existed. The course has inspired me and made me excited to create again. I'm looking forward to exploring the course library further.

I have watched numerous Photoshop tutorials in the past to improve my skills. I am so glad I found this course, I just wish I had have found it sooner instead of wasting my time with Youtube tutorials. Martins teaching style is fantastic and he explains things in such a clear and concise way. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to learn how to use photoshop. Honestly don't waste your time with Youtube tutorials just sign up to this course it really is worth it.

I give you five stars for your exceptional work in teaching. It would be more beneficial if your education in videos has closed captioning for deaf individuals like me. Thank you so much for teaching us how to create incredible graphic designs! I enjoy it tremendously.

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.

Martin and his team are incredible. I'm new to graphic design, and on this self-taught journey it feels key to have skilled, trustworthy teachers and mentors. I'm so grateful to have found this with Yes I'm A Designer. Martin and his team are so supportive while also being constructive in their feedback, and this has been invaluable for me. As well, their courses and tutorials are amazing - full of trustworthy approaches and techniques that I feel confident are the best habits for me to create. I cannot recommend them more highly for beginners or those more experienced alike. Thank you guys so much for everything you do!!!

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.

I highly recommend you guys should take the course or training at this institution. All the courses and sessions are really easy to follow and understand. Martin is one of the best teacher and he has a great method of teaching for starters to advanced students. The course/training included the amazing materials/assets to do the exercise and practice during learning. All is really amazing.

If I have found this course before I wouldn't have signed up for a 1 year Diploma within a well recognized design school in New Zealand. I'm learning sooooo much more from Yes, I'm a Designer. The course is dynamic, super well structure and Martin is an amazing teacher. Have nothing bad to say about it. So many examples to learn from, I'm super happy and excited that I'm doing this course and feel that in such little time I'm already so much better than when I started.

I really like the Illustrator course. It covers every topic in just enough detail, it is easy to follow and find chapters you may need a little refresher on. Also, it is easy to come back to it if you took a longer break. Well done, thanks!
