Want to learn Photoshop?

For four years, Itee Soni worked in her native India as a fashion textile designer for luxury European brands. Now in Shanghai, she's the co-owner of the chic eco-design brand, Finch. Soni’s career has fostered her professional grasp of Photoshop, but don't let her savvy tech skills fool you; she's not a socially awkward computer nerd. Actually, that's exactly why the chic geek’s classes are both fun and informative. “The main focus of the class is to make anyone - familiar or not - comfortable with Photoshop, which isn't the most intuitive software,” says Soni. She caps classes at seven people to ensure she can tend to students one by one. Covering the basic skills, the classes will not delve into dry, dense technicalities. Even the completely computer-clueless should not be deterred. The only computing pre-requirement, in fact, is to bring a laptop installed with Adobe Photoshop CS4,CS5 or CS6.
