- ePHOTOzine goes on the Photography Institute course
Two ePz staff members have joined the Photography Institute and you can follow their progress here.
Create a free account to like this page.
| Nik is trained in journalism and joined ePHOTOzine with not much photography experience and has picked most of her photography knowledge up as she's gone along. As a result, she decided a formal photography qualification would be something that's not only useful for her but the company as well. | Dan is trained in accounting and as he's our Finance Manager, photography isn't something he has to do everyday. However, as Dan's just bought a new DSLR he decided a photography course would give him the chance to learn a whole new set of skills and make the most of his camera. |
| Nik and Dan both use a with an 18-55mm lens, kept safely in a Bag (Modules 2 - 11). (Module 2 - 11). and (Module 2 - 11). from Johnsons Photopia. (Module 3). As much lighting equipment as you can get would be useful for Module 6. Myself and Nik used 2 softboxes as well as white and black backgrounds. (Module 6 & 7) |
Nik's opinion:
When I first downloaded the assignment the 67 page document was a little daunting. Especially as I'd have to sit at my computer and read it all! I have to be honest here and admit that I did skip the first few pages because I already had a rather good idea about what would be covered and I really didn't need to know what the author does and why. The rest of the document I did read, twice in fact, as I found it a little hard to absorb all of the information during the first go. If you don't have the time or attention span to read the course documents in one go don't worry as your tutor won't pressure you for your first assignment even if you've had the module papers open for a week.
Talking of the tutor, they are very helpful and if you have any questions, even something as small as what's the word count for the assignment, they respond promptly and thoroughly which is good to know. I eventually made it to the end of the document and onto the assignment. If you're a complete beginner to photography I think you'd struggle with some of the answers for module one as the information in the PDF document isn't enough to help you fully complete the questions. It's understandable that you're not spoon-fed information but if you are doing the course as a way to 'start an exciting new hobby' as the homepage suggests you can, you may be left a little confused and searching the internet for help. But don't forget there is 24 hour student support so even though your tutor can't give you the answers they will assist you as much as they can.
Overall, the information supplied was useful and in depth however, you can find the same information in photography books. The assignment questions are interesting though and they will make you really think about what lens you'd use and why.
Dan's opinion:
As I worked through the pages I did find my attention began to waver and it took a couple of reads to fully grasp the information given. If you're like me and you don't have a particularly long attention span when it comes to reading educational material you'll be happy to hear that due to the relaxed course finishing time you can walk away from the document, make a cup of tea and come back to it once you've given your mind something else to do for a while.
You'll be happy to hear the assignment only took around forty minutes to complete and the submission process online was very easy to follow. The assignment was marked and comments back with us the next day which was impressive. The comments weren't just 'great answer', 'good work' either. They were constructive and quite lengthy which is good to know when you're paying for a course where you don't actually meet your tutor.
The first module wasn't as enjoyable as I thought it would be but I think that's due to the made-up scenarios that I had to imagine I was part of. I did learn about lenses I've never used before and the questions really put me to the test!
I look forward to seeing what module two brings.
| "I can't really complain about getting 9 out of 10 in the first module! Lets hope the next score will be just as pleasing. It would be great to actually get outside with the camera next time." | "I am a complete newcomer to photography. I was very unsure what mark I was likely to get, so to score 8 out of 10 was very pleasing for me. Hopefully I can keep this up when we move into actually taking some pictures." |
When it came to the assignment, actually getting out with the camera was much more enjoyable than sat at a desk answering questions about scenarios we had to imagine.
The way the four assignment questions focused on different aspects of photography (ISO, depth of field etc.) before asking you to take and submit a photograph meant that once you got to the final, picture taking stage you were in the right mind-set to tackle the task correctly. It was quite easy to get carried away with taking photographs at this stage and quite a few were saved to the memory card before I remembered we only needed to submit one!
This module was much more enjoyable than the last and more like I'd expect modules on a photography course to be.
Bring on module three.
| Nik's submission - "As module two covered using depth of field I decided a chess board would be a great subject to demonstrate this in use." |
| |
| "Still a positive score from the tutor but I'm sure I can beat Dan again next time. Looking forward to seeing what module 3's all about." | "Wow, I didn't expect that. This has definitely given me a boost and can't wait to crack on with the next module." |
| "Ten out of ten isn't something to complain about! I just have to try and maintain this good performance now." | "Wow, I knew Nik had got ten a day before me, so I was feeling the pressure. Very happy with this score." |
Dan's opinion :
| "Another ten out of ten! Things are going well!" | "Another good mark here, yet again very pleased with my achievement on this module." |
| Nikita's before and after shots for the black and white question. | |
I'm not much of an expert when it comes to Photoshop so found this module quite tough. I found changing the varying settings on my raw files could get quite messy as I was trying to do too much to start with and quite often started again. With much persistance I came to a result I was happy with and submitted by pictures. Part of the assignment was to change an image to black and white. I chose an image I had used in the previous module and my tutor claimed the image looked even better in black and white. Yet again, there seemed to be a lot of reading, little of which was used in the assignment, but as with the previous modules, I can happily say I have further expanded my photographic knowledge.
| "Another ten! It's great to be getting full marks! Lets hope I can keep this up for module 6." | "I'm very pleased with nine, but it's not enough to keep up with Nik. It's a good job it's not a competition." |
I quite enjoyed the reading for this module but found that when it came to the assignment what I had read wasn't of much help. At first I was a bit lost as to what to do, but myself and Nik had a good look through some of the portrait photos on ePHOTOzine and the creative juices were soon flowing. In the end I had a lot of fun creating my pictures, especially using the lighting we had in the studio. My favourite shot was a very high-key portrait of our very own David. The outdoot shots weren't as easy to be creative with, but I used a reflector to ensure light got onto both sides of the models face and was happy with the result.
| "Not a ten but I am still pleased with the result. It was a longer task this time but the hard work paid off." | "Another high score, I'm suprising myself, this module took a lot more effort than the others, so I am glad my tutor was pleased with my work." |
| "Another high score which is great! This module is one you could have thought about for a very long time and when I submitted the assignment I was still wondering how I could have made it better! The nine goes to show I wasn't far off and I'm happy with that." | "I was nervous about this one, but when my tutor came back with an eight out of ten I was very pleased." |
| "I might not have enjoyed this module but it seems I am on the right lines when it comes to picking kit." | "Another pleasing mark. The tutor's comments for this were also extremely helpful and has given me lots to think about." |
| "Easy assignment this one so I'm glad I got a ten." | "Great, I've not had full marks for a while. I found this module quite easy, but picked up some extremely useful knowledge." |
| "The score's OK but it's the feedback you get from your tutor in this module that's the really great bit." | "I am pleased with an eight, but more pleasing and useful was the feedback received from my tutor." |
| "Can't not be happy with a ten! The tutor's advice was great too." | "I am pleased with a nine, it reflects the effort I put in." |

Module 8 Visual Communication
Visual communication is part of our everyday lives – we see it online, on the TV and in our geographical locations. The effective use of communicating visually is complex and requires the creative to correctly interpret a brief, develop conceptual ideas around the brief, be able to critique the idea, and interpret the mode of delivery for the audience. In this module, you will learn how to determine your intent of visual communication specific to your target audience for photo images.

Module 12 Final Body of Work - Portfolio and Area of Specialisation
In this module, you will be building your final body of work as a portfolio in your area of interest. You will combine everything you have learned so far to create an industry standard series of images. You will consider your target audience for this body of work and a variety of means of displaying your images online. This will include a website and social media considerations. You will investigate how visual communication engages your target audience and how you will apply visual communication theories to your photo images. You will explore presentation layouts for your portfolio and consult with relevant people when developing these layout options. You will develop your presentation concept using critical thinking skills. You will refine how the presentation will work and explore the production budget, time frames and workflow plans while considering the objectives and copyright requirements. You may need to address technical challenges that arise during this process. You will then present your own creative work that stylistically suits your genre and seek feedback on your body of work. You will also develop systems to identify to future presentations and business opportunities.

PI Module 3 - Greyscale Test Setup
Thank you so much for this information! I have been struggling with this assignment and have searched online for input. I looked in Flickr and people commented how hard it was to get through this exercise but no one really put up any helpful information. I appreciate your additional information-it confirms what I have been doing right and wrong.Thank you:)!!
Hi and thank you for your kind comment. Please bear in mind that it is some time since I wrote that post as I stopped tutoring for PI over 2 years ago. You may want to check that the assignment has not been updated since then, or at least be sure, in your own mind, I am addressing the current question. If so, I hope you have success with your assignment, and please free free to share this page - and the blog. There are some free gifts on the home page! :)

| says: This module was about Lenses and filters and when to use them. |
| says: As a total beginner, I am struggling a bit with this assigment - not a good start! Is there an absolute 'right' answer with regard to lens choice or is it more personal preference? | |
| says: not sure, I went for what I thought would give good composition, did better than I expected to on the assignment , you get good feedback on the assignment from your tutor. | |
| says: I too am a total beginner. It's alot of information to take in when you don't know the first thing about photography. | |
| says: I started the course around 4 days ago, i have read over module 1 over and over and am struggling a bit with the first assignment as i found not enough info in the module to help answer the questions. Am i alone on this or did anyone else finding it hard? | |
| says: I found that i was a bit lost when it came to looking at what was needed as you say the course does not give a lot of information, tried to pick out the relevant pieces from the course work, rest was what i thought would be reasonable answers, but it got me thinking about various lighting and DOF scenarios regarding the subject. | |
| says: Definatley not alone mariax-m, I am hearing you loud and clear. I have been finding research on the internet useful but still out of my depth. Have you contacted your tutor to advise you are struggling? I did and they were kind enough to give me some beginner courseware - a 'primer' workbook. It made things a little more clear however I am still struggling in the assignment. I guess it's the lack of knowledge. I am assuming for anyone with any previous experience it probably is pretty basic. | |
| says: Thanks for that, its nice to know its not just me. My Camera is coming on Thursday, a Canon 50D. I've ordered a book on SLR and photography for dummies!! should be good. I've done the first 3 scenarios on assignment one and will do another one tonight once ive finished work. | |
| says: sorry to be a pain but just a quick question- | |
| says: hy Maria | |
| says: Hy Mark | |
| says: good to see your sorted Mark | |
| says: Hi everyone, | |
| says: i'm going to submit mine tonight, fingers crossed it goes ok!! what is everyones estimated time of doing the course? do u think u will complete it before the 24weeks? | |
| says: I think that you are expecting a little too much if you only enrolled yesterday :) I found that once I had read the module properly, most of the necessary information was there. I managed that assignment ok, with a high mark, and am now looking at second assignment. | |
| says: you seem to have deleted your previous comments in this thread - strange. They were fairly contradictory to be honest. | |
| says: I notice that Mark has now left the group, could not understand how he got his marks the next day, mine take 3-4 days normally | |
| says: Mine took 4-5 days too, next day for Mark surprised me too :) | |
| says: thats a bit strange. why would someone want to come on here and lie about something like that? | |
| says: Just read through the first module and now starting the assignment questions. I have to admit I am not sure of all the answer but then I am just going to give it my best shot and see what the tutor says. Hopefully if I am far off the mark the tutor will point me in the right direction. | |
| says: its been 5 days and my assignment still hasnt been marked! | |
| says: Hy Maria, I submitted my assignment 4 last Monday and had my marks back about midnight on Saturday giving 6 days this is the longest I have waited. don;t rely on getting the Email as soon as its marked mine arrived this morning, just keep checking the results page | |
| says: thanks Mike, | |
| says: Hi everyone, | |
| says: you can buy a cheap tripod at Asda (£10-£20)if necessary, but you could most likely do this using something to support the camera, you just really need to take the image from the same location | |
| says: Thanks Mike. I'll have a look in Asda. | |
| says: hi Gems2009, | |
| says: My assignment was marked at last :) | |
| says: How did you go Maria, I have most of my assignment 1 done. I'm nervous about submitting. I guess its because I still doubt whether I have grasped an understanding or not. | |
| says: i did suprisingly well, 90% and i wasnt very confident with it all either | |
| says: Good one Maria | |
| says: Thanks, it was worth the wait. Even tho it would be better if the wait wasnt so long | |
| says: Well done Maria :-) | |
| says: Good result Maria. I have submitted my first assignment on sunday and waiting patiently for my result too. I did find myself re-reading alot of the modules to clarify the answers but I think I got a basic understanding of lenses. | |
| says: Hi Maria. Thanks for the info. I need to go get one this weekend. Just got Assignment 1 back. I got 80% and some really helpful feedback. Now nervous about Assignment 2!!! | |
| says: Well done Maria! I've just submitted mine, hopefully I get the same result! | |
| says: Submitted Assignment 1 and 8/10. Better than I thought it might be for a complete novice. Great feedback from the tutor. I'm going to go back over each question looking a his tips so I actually learn from it. | |
| says: Got my results yesterday and ended up with the magic 80% which is better than I expected. My tutor's feedback was really helpful too and helped me better understand the best lens for the job and why. Onto assignment 2 it is then. Nice to see everyone is getting good marks. | |
| says: I got my results back and am dumbfounded - I got 10 marks. I keep logging back in to check it in case they've made a mistake!! Very suprised but very happy. Still don't have a camera though, which makes completing assignment 2 a little hard. I'm definatley making a decision by the end of the week regarding my purchase. Can't wait to get my hands on it!! | |
| says: thats a great result, hope you enjoy your camera when you get it | |
| says: I submitted the assignment yesterday and got my results this morning, which i think is pretty fast i was expecting it to take a few days at least! so onto mod 2 now. (got 8 points by the way). | |
| says: Congratulations Fruity, That is indeed a quick response, I usually wait 3-5 days for my results. Who is your tutor? | |
| says: It's Mathew, i was surprised to receive the results so quick. | |
| says: I found this module bogged me down a bit with terms and concepts I'm pretty unfamiliar with. I found this article that acted as a good starting point into lenses and digital SLRs. | |
| says: Hi to you all | |
| Welcome Nadine!!! | |
| Hi Nadine, Great to see another member. | |
| says: Welcome on board Nadine. | |
| says: Welcome Nadine. Great result! I am currently on Module 5 and very behind. There always seems to be a delay, this time I've broken a Lens and waiting for a new one to arrive. Have been enjoying the course although at times I've doubted myself but at the end of every assignment I realise I've learnt so much more than the last. | |
| says: Hi, I just wanted to say a big thank you to Mike for this Group (I found you on T189 Group) I joined PI a month or so ago and haven't got around to completing Assignment 1 yet (life and stuff always gets in the way) But finding this Group has given me a kick up the ar*e and inspired me to get on with it. Nice to know there's some support here when I inevitably flounder. | |
| Welcome 4paw. Life and stuff has a lot to answer for......... :-) I have had the same problem since I started the course last year! This group is great, has given me the boost I needed to get on with it. | |
| says: Hi everyone, | |
| says: Well done :) | |
| says: Hello, | |
| says: Welcome, I'm on Module 4 and a bit puzzled about what is required for part of it so have logged in to check on here. Some great pointers from people that have already completed modules and some great people. You'll enjoy it here. | |
| says: Hi Lewis, good luck on the course. Don't let module 1 put you off. | |
| says: Welcome onboard Lewis and best of luck with the course | |
| says: Welcome Lewis :) Enjoy the course and the group | |
| I just signed up at PI and downloaded Module 1. It's late right now so I'll start reading tomorrow. Is anyone else just starting now? BTW my tutor is Matthew. I have the feeling that a lot of people have him as tutor? | |
| Hi Cheryle, Matthew is my tutor too. He's great. Marks assignments really quickly - usually back within 24hours! | |
| Thanks Sally. I just finished answering the questions for assignment 1, but haven't sent them in yet. Did anyone else have a hard time deciding on just one lens which would be the best for the situation? I often found myself have two or three lenses that I could imagine using depending on other factors that might or might not be involved! | |
| I think this assignment is hard because you are not really sure what is expected of you for your answers. Gets easier as you progress. I chose one lens for each scenario and I got 9/10. I know a few people have had questions about this and I've attached a copy of Surfergirlbec's post from earlier in this thread which may help put your mind at rest | |
| Thanks Sally! I definitely found this assignment a challenge! | |
| says: Hi Cheryle, | |
| thanks Brian! | |
| says: Hey Everyone, | |
| Welcome to the group, Hope. I'm on module 3 right now and have been waiting for two weeks now for time to read and get started on it! It is hard with kids and especially now before Christmas. Good luck with getting started. :) | |
| says: hi | |
| says: it was a good stumble by the way!! looks a little rude now re-reading what i have written | |
| says: Hi vbird1979, I didn't have a camera when I started either and decided to buy the Nikon D40. Feel that it has been great value for money so far and good entry level camera. Don't be scared - just have fun - and I agree about how friendly and helpful everyone is. :-> | |
| says: Hi vbird1979. Welcome to the group. | |
| says: thanks. ive now took the plunge and am awaiting delivery on the canon 500d.....so exciting!! just a little question regarding the module 1 assignment, do you literally just say what lens you would use or do you also say where you would take the photos from eg on top of the building opposite? dont know if im looking too much into it.. | |
| says: HY Vbird1979 When I did this module I only listed lens I would use and why, I didn't say where I would take photo from | |
| says: Hi vbird1979 | |
| Hi Vbird, I did list where I would take the picture if it was relevant to the lens choice (that was part of my "why" answer on some questions). | |
| says: thanks everyone, sent my answers off and managed an 8/10 which im relieved about. youre right...i put whatever i felt was necessary for each answer including and little extras i would do and wasnt penalised for it. phew one down eleven to go!! | |
| says: OMG. | |
| says: | |
| says: I've read and re-read the module over and over now to the point that it is literally driving me crazy! I keep deciding on a lens, or lenses, for particular scenarios and then second guessing myself and starting from scratch. AAAARGH! I can't wait for this assignment to be over, it's doing my head in! | |
| says: I felt the same for Module 1....and 2.. and 3. Every time I do an assignment I talk myself into thinking there could be another answer. The best thing you can do is read the module again and if you are unsure, check your answers against other sources (plenty of websites or books to refer to). I did this, submitted my assignment and it came back with a decent mark. | |
| says: Hi to everybody else doing this course! | |
| says: Thanks for the encouragement guys! | |
| says: 9 out of 10! woooo-hoooooooo! :O) | |
| says: I have a question regarding Assignment 1. After reading through the module and making some notes, it appears that for several of the scenarios there could be a couple of lenses used. Is it okay to submit a couple of len types as answers where applicable? | |
| says: Hi Andy, | |
| says: Thanks for the advice Lewis! | |
| says: Just to clarify - it wasn't me copying and pasting my answers the wrong way round! I mixed up where you would use a Shift Lens and a Wide Angle lens. | |
| says: Hi Everyone, | |
| says: hey guys & gals!! | |
| says: @ malibugurl and kenz.8 | |
| says: Thanks for the advice Anmar1983 :) | |
| says: Hi Everyone, | |
| says: Congrats on the marks :D | |
| says: Hi everyone, | |
| says: Hi everybody, | |
| says: Hi all, | |
| says: hi mis phoxx i was searching the web and found this would have loved it when i started assignment 1 oh well i did alot of research for it and was so scared when i submited it i thought i would get 3/10 but OMG i got 9/10 i was so blown away my teacher told me it was a personal prefference to which lens and that there was no reall worng answer but one lens would be better that another so just trust your gut and good luck | |
| says: Thanks c4a4eva, after much deliberation, I have finally submitted assignment one!! feeling worried and relieved at the same time! I guess I'll just have to keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best! I messaged my tutor about some questions and told him I was a COMPLETE amateur - up until about a week ago, I'd never even held an SLR! Anyway, they sent me a photography fundamentals primer and that seems to have made a world of difference for me! | |
| says: Super excited!!! Just got my marks for assignment one - 10/10!!!!! Feeling so relieved! I guess all the deliberating and stressing out paid off! | |
| says: hi .. can someone explain to me whats the difference between questions 1 and 2? | |

Great course
Great course for those that don’t want to feel rushed to complete assignments.
Date of experience : August 13, 2024
I would definitely recommend this course to anyone with an interest in photography!
The work is well-explained and set out in a basic, understandable way. The author makes it feel like you're having a conversation with him, by making a few humorous comments here and there and also adding extra thoughts and sharing personal stories and experiences. It's fun and interesting! I am recommending this course to everyone I know who has an interest in photography, because this course would be the way to go!

I now have a better understanding of photography because of this course so i think it is good, however in thought there was going to be a mix of videos and notes for visual learners but the notes still do it for me

My Thoughts on The Photography Institute Course
I have found the module notes interesting and informative even though at times very technical. It is an advantage to have the next assignments available before you have received the previous assignments result. My mentor has given me valuable information during the assessment pointing out area's which I should concentrate on. When asked a question I have received quick and concise replies. I have the course most enjoyable and have learnt more about my camera since I have started than I had in the previous 6 years.

A winning recipe into better photography.
I loved this course as I learned so much. I feel that the content that I learned together with the guidance and feedback from my tutor helped me into being a better photographer. My tutor was extremely responsive and knew exactly how to motivate me.
Date of experience : June 04, 2024
informative modules
The modules give a lot of imformation , but i sometimes feel like it does not give you the information needed to complete the assignment . There has been a few of the assignment where I as a novice photographer , have struggled to get what is expected . There is a lot of history in the module which is not always necessary
Date of experience : June 18, 2024
Captivating
Is is extremely helpful and everything you need is there. So far it is a very captivating and educational course, not to talk about all the practical experience I get from the assignments!
Date of experience : July 10, 2024
Gotta do it!
It's motivated me to take myself further in photography! Self studying is challenging but in a good way. I'm always trying to do better and this has helped me achieve.
Date of experience : June 03, 2024
No complaints at all
No complaints at all. Good feedback. My tutor is great help in making me understand things much better. Quick service and response. Learned a lot and improved my skill in photography
Date of experience : May 27, 2024
You need to do this
You will not be spoon fed. There are things you'll need to figure out for yourself. You may even experience frustration at times. The course is designed to challenge you - to make you think like a photographer - and ultimately help you become a real photographer. Looking back it's incredible how much I now know. This knowledge will take years if you try doing it on your own. Your tutor knows exactly what to say and when. It's for everyone at every level, I'm 57. Register - you will not regret it. Not for lazy people though.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE PHOTOGRAPHY INSTITUTE
When I started the course, I can honestly say I did not know all the features of my camera and did not fully understand the settings. I really enjoy, how each assignment has been set out, which leads into the understanding of the next assignment. Steven Vote my tutor has always been available and his knowledge is incredible. I have just finished Assignment 10 and would highly recommend this course. I do believe once I have graduated, I am able to go out there and take photographs of clients with confidence. Thank you The Photography Institue

Testing skills and not just knowledge.
Testing skills and not just knowledge. I have always believed in studies and that book knowledge is not everything, so I love the fact that PI is testing your skills as you go through the modules.

In Depth, Challenging and Interesting
I love how in depth the modules are, they touch on such a variety of subjects and the assignments at the end of each module help you to really understand more of what you've read. I've learnt so many things and am so surprised when I see people who have already started their business asking for advice on things that are covered in the modules, which lead me to believe there are other courses out there that will help you get where you want to be but do not give you understanding on everything. My tutor, George Seper, always responded quickly and was always encouraging. The student support team has always been helpful and friendly. This course is not easy FYI, it is challenging but worth it.

A game changer!
The Photography Institute didn’t just improve my photography skills but changed how I see everything around me. It also helped me become a confident photographer. Out of the many aspects that it covers, my favourite part was learning about light and the science around it! The tutor that was assigned to me was so skilled and I have loved learning from him! I found this course user friendly and easy to understand. For me personally, this course was a game changer!
Date of experience : October 18, 2023
The depth of work covered
The depth of work covered, per module/topic is extensive. The intensity of the course is truly impressive. Tutor feedback is in itself an experience and I have learned so much already. The range of topics covered in this course is way beyond what other online courses offer. This is so much more than just learning to take a picture. To be able to learn photography at this level, and at MY pace, is a wonderful journey. I have done numerous photography courses, but never before at this high level. This is certainly one of the best photography courses.
Date of experience : June 27, 2023
The reason for 5 stars…
I'm very happy with and grateful for the why The Photography Institute treats their students. When ever I had a question, I got a quike and helpful response from my tutor or the student support team. And I'm grateful for the feedback I got on my assignments, it helped me improve my work.

Fantastic Photography Training Provider
The course material is very comprehensive and assignments stretch your photography skill and growth. The tutor is very helpful and provides good feedback and additional insights on the module and assignment. The backoffice staff have always been very friendly and most helpful. The portal is easy to use and provides additional material to tap into.

when I first started with this course I…
when I first started with this course I didn't know anything about photography. This course has really helped my photography skills on a lot of different levels. My photography has improved by leaps and bounds. I am very happy that I took this course. It's a great quality course, very indepth for learning techniques to take better pictures and gave me a lot off self confidence to not feel shy or scared when asked to take family gathering photos anymore. I will recommend this course to anybody who feels they want to become more professional or just up the skills as a hobby.

Wonderful Course For Beginners
I love everything about the course. It provides flexibility and I can do each assignment at my own pace. I didn't need an expensive DSRL camera to get started and the course provides options that suit my needs for submitting assignments. My tutor promptly replies to questions I may have and gives encouraging, motivating and constructive feedback. The content of the course is well planned out and written in a comprehensive way. This is a great course for beginners!
Date of experience : February 05, 2023
My experience of the PI
The PI website and registration process is user friendly. The fact that only ONE module opens up ensure that you complete a module before you continue. The modules are well written and full of information. The feedback from the tutors are quick and full of insight. It helps me to understand what I did wrong or did not understand. The tutors are willing to help and set your mind at ease when you feel overwhelmed. Learned a lot up to now.
