I'm a graphic designer with two years of experience and I can tell you all out there, the whole series is so informative and helpful. Thanks for taking out your time for all of us, Gareth! Cheers!

[haseenah]

I hope you understand how important your series are to people. I love to learn but spending thousands of dollars on a degree that I might not enjoy is not appealing at all. I can't say thank you enough for building this foundation. You're shaping my future.

[ShiningAlyon]

I watched his 19 episodes series about Illustrator for beginners and I strongly recommend it, helped me a lot!
An honest thank you from a stranger Gareth.

[arghadeepbhattacharjee]

I am quite amazed by your generosity. Giving all these information with demonstration for free👏. And not only that, you have a completely well organised series having all the lesson numbers named properly and links in every video of the series to the next vid lesson. You even went to the length to provide a pdf for easy reference. You have thought very much about the viewers convenience and easy understanding.
I am very happy to see people like you still exist, who give so much to others and never ask much themselves. People like you are very hard to find these days.
Proud of you man.
Wish you well and may god bless you

Hi Gareth. I am so proud to had discovered your channel by casualty. Your explanations are clear, accurate and easy to follow. Not everybody knows how to atract public attention through a video presentation and you achieve that goal. I am about to finish the module of photoshop and I will continue learning with your tips. My next stop will be with Indesign.
So, please don´t stop producing videos like these. You are one of the few people that made good and practice tutorials to help other people. Thanks for sharing your expertise and knowlege, good done!

Regards

Thank you so much for this series. I am a freelance graphic designer with over 20 years of experience. My daughter wants to learn more about this field, and while I know all this, having been away for college for a million years I didn't know how to communicate all the things I know to her. We are going to watch this together this summer so she can learn the basics and decide if this is the way she wants to go with her career.

Best tutorials i have seen ever! i Just finished Illustrator tutorials and come to here. Every video is in well arrangement, clear outline, perfect voice and step-by-step teaching, i have recommend to all my friends who interested in it. Can't imagine how much time you spend on making these series, just can't thank you enough;)

[CheekyMF]

May I start by saying thank you Gareth for such a comprehensive series of education material on graphic design. Your video series is very well presented, both visually and contextually. I'm trying to change direction in life and have attended a couple of short course"s regarding graphic media. I have to say your material is far more informative than these courses have proven to be. I've recommended your education material to many other students and to tutors, all of which have been very impressed by the video series and support material on offer. Therefore I hope your efforts are very well rewarded and I' look forward to gaining some of your knowledge from this excellent YouTube channel.

[yazzan]

[angwanghyeon]

Finally! You've come back!
I learned such a lot from you, and always so grateful that what you've done !

[rinpoppu]

I sincerely wish you the best on this video series. Your other tutorials (specially on AI) has really been helpful to me. I'm not on the design path in uni, but I really enjoy tinkering around PS and AI and creating posters and graphics and whatnot. I hope to take on small freelance projects/job on graphic design on the side someday, so thank you very much for doing this. This is great!

[arpanmitra]

[cursivart]

Thanks, Gareth. I appreciate these episodes so much, just to get an idea of what a life in the field would be like, and how I can best be prepared to extend myself beyond that mold.

[setyoindarto]

This is the most valuable channel in the world, on youtube is so rare there is a channel that makes us become useful and can be a skilled man, we are indebted to the knowledge that you give. Once again, thank you so much

[anggakharismaputra]

This is like free college education.
Thank you so much for doing this.

[SHEPxPARD]

Thank you very much, Gareth!

You know, you have become a significant part of my lifestory and my graphic design background. About a year ago I learnt how to use Illustrator from you series "A beginners guide to adobe illustrator", I used those skills to pass an entrance exam for graphic design studies and now I am studying graphic design (about to finish 1st year).

I'm definitely going to check out these series as well and I bet that I will learn a lot from you again.
Wish you all the best! :)

[roxylori]

You are my favorite graphic design tutorial person on YouTube and I always recommend you to everyone. If anyone could narrate my life it would be you haha love your channel!

[hapaikan]

I know you must get this all the time, I'm not even sure you'll ever read this, but the interactive worksheet is incredibly beautiful, going through it made me want to take your course. You're so talented. Thank you so very much for sharing your skills, Gareth.
