Completed a Photoshop project w/ Alexey and I felt like I learned more than I could have on my own. He has a unique way of motivating his students and complementing the professional colleagues. Would definitely work with him again for future projects/assignments.

Alex has been so helpful with all my computer and technology questions. He always responds quickly, will go out of his way to problem solve anything that comes up, and he has the best personality for working with my 9 yr old son on his YouTube videos! Highly recommended and we love him!

I WAS REALLY IN BIG TROUBLE WITH CONVERTING A TRANSPARENT VIDEO FILE TO UPLOAD IT ON MY WEBSITE. EVEN THOUGH I SPOKE TO OTHER EXPERTS THAT COULDNT SOLVE THE PROBLEM, ALEXEY INSISTED TO HELP ( LATE FRIDAY NIGHT ) AND RESOLVED MY GLITCH IN NO TIME!! HE ALSO WALKED ME THROUGH THE STEPS MULTIPLE TIMES, SENT ME A RECORDED VIDEO. LOVED EVERY PART OF IT!!! DEF RECOMMEND AND WILL KEEP IN MIND FOR THE FUTURE 1000%

Alexey listened to what my needs were and thoughtfully designed our session with that in mind. He is a very thorough, knowledgeable, and talented instructor. Capable and willing to adjust his session to fit the need of his student. He also has an enthusiastic approach to teaching which makes the lesson more fun.

So far I have had 3 lessons with Alexey, he really helps me create what I am trying to create on after effects while helping me expand my knowledge and skills. He is a very creative tutor and his lessons are never dry. Overall I really enjoy his tutoring and I look forward to having more lessons with him in the future.

He is patient and that was so welcome since I am very new to Indesign. We will be scheduling future lessons. He was the perfect fit for me. He is so concientious and didn't roll his eyes at all when I didn't know something:)

Alexey was patient, found the right balance between letting me practice and correcting me, has a great sense of humor, and overall made learning Russian very fun. Thank you, Alexey!

Alexey gave me an intro to After Effects lesson as I was struggling with manipulating key frames after watching a YouTube lesson. He was fantastic. He showed me how to use the key frames to do a several different manipulations of text and graphics and then how to make the output file. He guided me with me sharing my screen and he was able to draw on the screen so he could point to controls easily. I got so much out of my hour. Definitely doing it again!

Alexey has vast amount of knowledge when it comes to web development and user experience. He showed me the ropes of Figma, great help!
- Emily C. from Heavener, OK
Alex is a very knowledgeable instructor for Adobe after effects. He helped me with my project to create a lyric video from a template I purchased. He had me up and running and I was able to work on my own with the template after the lesson. I would definitely use Alex again as an instructor.
- James C. from Costa Mesa, CA
Alexey is awesome! He is very knowledgable, excellent at explaining even complex ideas, extremely patient and easy to work with, flexible with appointments, and so much fun! He is completely professional, but very relaxed, fun, and easy to learn with. He goes above and beyond, even spending time outside our appointment to find a solution to a tricky aspect of a project I was working on. His tutoring is worth any price, but you literally cannot do better at this price! HIGHLY recommend! Thank you, Alexey! looking forward to our next section!

I am very happy that I found him. He is such a wonderful and patient tutor. He is extremely knowledgeable and it's very clear that he cares about your learning. I definitely recommend Alexey 100% if you are interested in learning anything about photoshop and design. Alexey helped me understand how to do certain things on Photoshop and we designed a Logo. He is a Gem!
