This course has been a game-changer for me, and I highly recommend it.
Dansky's Adobe Illustrator Masterclass is not just any ordinary course. It offers an abundance of value with 71 comprehensive lessons that provide in-depth instruction. Dansky has done an exceptional job in putting together this course, and the community support he provides is excellent. As a relatively new Illustrator user, this course has been a game-changer for me, and I highly recommend it. The investment is well worth it.

Even as a seasoned designer, I found this course useful.
Even as a seasoned designer, I found this course useful in just the first few lessons. There are so many little things that we are not taught in school that I am learning here. Dansky speaks very clearly and is incredibly knowledgeable making it easy to follow. I totally recommend for beginners especially, but to the experienced designer as well to learn more useful tips and tricks.

Dansky is a wonderful instructor, the course is suitable for both beginners and experienced designers. I was fortunate to find him right when I decided to learn Illustrator, and I can say that it has accelerated my learning process and significantly improved my technique. The support he provides is also excellent and very prompt. It is undoubtedly the best course you can take.

I can't say enough good things about this course.
This course is a fantastic resource for both beginners with no prior knowledge or experience in designing in Illustrator as well as those more experienced designers looking to enhance their knowledge of the application. Dan is a very charismatic instructor. He does a fantastic job of comprehensively going over all the different tools and techniques in Illustrator (old and new), when and how to best utilize those tools, and the best ways to combine different techniques to create your own magic. The course is structured really well. The lessons are easy to follow and each lesson is full of valuable insights and feels fun and engaging. Dan is also very active on the course's community platform and regularly provides feedback and answers questions posed by the members. I can’t say enough good things about this course and what a great return on investment it’s been personally for me.

Dan is a gret teacher, I think he was born to teach.
Although having learned to work with Photoshop in my Graphic Design course, I've always preferred working with vectors. As so, I only used Photoshop for some simple tasks. I am a very exigent learner as I need to know why things work the way they do so that I can make better and wiser options when choosing the tools I need for each intended result. I also got very overwhelmed when needing to use lots of adjustment layers. Dan is a great teacher; I think he was born to teach. His calm and efficient way of doing things is quite contagious and helped me a lot. After this Photoshop course with Dan, I feel more confident and I will use Photoshop more and better.

I absolutely recommend this class, it is great value for money.
I have been following Dansky on youtube for a while now. His teaching style is really great. I knew that the masterclass would be amazing.
After enrolling and going through a couple of modules so far, it has exceeded my expectations. After each module there is a challenge that makes you apply the skills you have learned. You get access to a member's community where you can interact with others and get design feedback. Dan promptly replies to any question you might have.
I was looking for an advanced class because I thought I knew the basics of Illustrator, but Dan is teaching me new things everyday.
I absolutely recommend this class, whether you're a novice or a master, you will definitely be learning something. It is a great value for money.

Dan continues to surprise me with new insights, I highly recommend this course.
I've been following Dansky on YouTube for quite some time, and I’ve always enjoyed his teaching style. So, when I saw the masterclass, I knew it was going to be great. Now that I’ve completed a few modules, it has surpassed my expectations. Each module is followed by a challenge that helps you immediately put what you've learned into practice. Plus, there's access to a members' community where you can connect with others and receive feedback on your designs. What truly stands out is Dan's support of his students. He’s always available to answer questions and provide personalized feedback—something that’s rare to find in most courses. Personalized help in a course? Unheard of, yet Dan does it! I initially joined looking for an advanced class, thinking I already had the basics of Illustrator down, but Dan continues to surprise me with new insights. I highly recommend this course to anyone, whether you’re a beginner or have more experience. You’ll definitely gain something valuable, and it’s an incredible deal for the price.
