Why book with us for your photography course?

  1. We have fully structured teaching methods: our tutors are fully qualified tutors as well as being active professional photographers. They have many years experience in the industry, teaching in colleges and training in the workplace.
  2. Emphasis is not just placed on how to use your camera, but on understanding what makes a successful photograph.
  3. We follow a tried and tested digital workflow to get the best out of your images.
  4. We guarantee a ratio of no more than 4:1, with both of our tutors fully qualified within their field of excellence as well as being professional lecturers.
  5. Having two tutors allows us to have a greater flexibility, enabling us to cater for your needs.
  6. Our tutors may shoot along side you, but as a learning tool we will show you what we are shooting and explain how and why we set up our shots.
  7. By using short workshops, lectures, guided learning times and handouts, we can ensure that what you learn will be remembered.
  8. We not only teach good photographic techniques, but conceptual content, visual language and understanding of image manipulation.
  9. Our photography courses are fully structured and use tried and tested teaching methods.
  10. Our photography tutors have many years experience in the photographic industry, as well as teaching in colleges and training within the workplace, delivering National Diplomas (ND), Higher National Diplomas (HND), Degrees, NVQ and Modern Apprenticeships. After all, just because you are a professional photographer it doesn't follow that you can teach subject effectively.
  11. We have a comprehensive online learning zone, that contain all your learning materials, you can use over and over again.
  12. You will also have a handbook containing all of your handouts to take home. Your learning starts with us, and you will take away many techniques and tips that can be applied to your future photography.

Over the years we have studied other pro-led photography courses, and found that:

  1. Their teaching methods are badly structured for optimised learning, e.g. find a location, all shoot, then ask for tips.
  2. The ratio of student to tutor is high, often as much as 20:1.
  3. Even if the ratio is lower you will often have a professional and an assistant.
  4. The professional has been known to spend more time taking his own photographs, so hence you are on your own or left with the assistant.
  5. What you learn isn't memorable.
  6. Teaching programs are not flexible.
  7. We have found that the tutors may well be professional photographers but very rarely qualified as teachers.

We would actively encourage you to compare our courses with the other companies offering similar photographic tuition.
We are confident of the quality of our courses, the progression of skills you will take away with you,
as well as being
value for money.

When you compare DigitalMasterclass to other courses, ask yourself these questions:

  1. As well as being professional photographers are the tutors fully qualified as educators?
  2. Is there a low student to tutor ratio?
  3. Is the course structured to enhance your learning experience?
  4. Is the course flexible enough to accommodate your individual needs?
  5. Does the company offer you any additional learning support beyond the completion of the course?
  6. Are the courses accredited by an awarding body rather than a magazine or a association

We are proud to declare that DigitalMasterclass can say YES to all of these.

We are always pleased to keep in touch with our past students, it's great to hear when they have had photographs published, or started a new photographic job. Click here to to see what our students say about our courses.

Online Photography Courses To complement our location based digital photography courses, we now offer a range of e-learning photography courses in conjunction with; DMC Photography College, which is a dedicated online photographic college.

School Workshops We are working with Kent schools, offering photographic workshops. Ranging from "Painting with Light" and "Pinhole Photography" through to design briefs and Adobe Photoshop tutorial sessions.

Corporate Training Courses We also work within the corporate sector, offering bespoke training for industry, and corporate partners, either within their working environment or at our training centre in Dover, Kent.

We have given many photographic talks and lectures to clubs and groups throughout the South East. In May 2006 we delivered a seminar to the Royal Photographic Society. Feel free to contact us, if your camera club
or photographic society would be interested in one of our talks or hosting one of our photography courses.
