I have completed 12 classes since joining the course and learnt many things. I very much like the video tutorials which help step-by-step learning. I have learnt a lot of new things, especially how to create special effects and creating and editing tables. Many thanks to the teacher!

I am really enjoying this course and the teaching by video which is something I never did before. I am half-way through the course now, and I have learnt many things about design and working with text and images. I am now able to scale and crop images and fit content to a frame, among other things.

I am learning a lot of things in a short time! I am developing fast typing skills and understanding how InDesign works. As a beginner, I am amazed by the things I have learnt and it really helps to have a teacher who gives so much time and effort!

The teacher is very patient and because of this I am gaining many new skills on this course. As well as the online tutorials, there are some days when homework is required, which enables me to put the learning into practice. Working with InDesign, in my homework I have designed a menu for a restaurant, a business card and a business advert. I have also learnt how to create banner advertising. I really want to thank the teacher at Swan International for this valuable course. It is like a golden dream for me!

I am on my 12th class now on this course and I am learning a lot about graphic design by using InDesign. I have learnt how to format text, create tables and use more advanced tools like the ‘Pen Tool’ with which I can draw patterns and shapes. I am also enjoying learning how to use images in design by cropping and scaling. I am thankful for the video tutorials because this is a great way for me to learn from home.

In InDesign, I observed how to use various tools such as the Pen tool and how it works, including the type on path tool, which I found very exciting. Previous lessons can be revised through video, which is a big help. Since joining the course as a complete beginner, I have now designed a restaurant menu, a leaflet, and my own business card. Special thanks to the teacher for making the lessons enjoyable – I will always remain grateful!​

This course is very important to me. I got to learn a huge amount in five weeks. You realise how much you get to learn after the first two days. The great thing was how the instructor explained things in a very beautiful way so that I could understand typesetting, typography, fonts and styles, formatting of documents, and of course, the platforms like InDesign, Illustrator and Photoshop. You realise you can learn the skills to work independently.

I was amazed by the history of graphic design and how it is intertwined with the development of modern computer technologies. The course will equip you with typesetting skills and an understanding about fonts and typography which makes you appreciate the harmony between image and text, as well as the role of InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator in design-work. This is a great course because the tutor is patient and knows how to guide complete beginners like me!​

It’s a comprehensive learning programme. I started as a beginner and soon began to acquire skills and eye-opening knowledge about graphic design. It’s quite intensive and requires commitment as with anything, but in return the instructor will push you and literally expand your horizons! I have now gained a greater level of proficiency in graphic design skills over a period of five weeks that would ordinarily take months, if not years. ​
