Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

What is the First Lesson Guarantee?

Your first lesson is your chance to meet your new tutor and make sure they're the right fit for you. If for any reason you're not completely satisfied, we'll find you a different tutor for free. It's our way of ensuring you start your learning journey with confidence.

Do I need to own Adobe Illustrator before starting lessons?

Yes, you will need your own subscription to Adobe Illustrator. Your tutor can help you navigate the software, but you must have it installed on your computer. You can get a free trial from Adobe's website to start.

How much do Illustrator tutors charge?

The price of an Illustrator tutor varies based on their experience and background. You can browse our tutors' profiles to see their individual rates, which are clearly listed. There are options to suit various budgets.

I'm a complete beginner. Can an Illustrator tutor help me?

Absolutely. Our tutors love working with beginners! They can start with the absolute basics, from understanding the interface to mastering fundamental tools like the Pen Tool, helping you build a strong foundation from your very first lesson.

Is a graphics tablet necessary for Illustrator lessons?

While a graphics tablet can be very helpful for illustration, it's not strictly necessary to get started, especially if you're focusing on logo design or typography. Many professionals use a mouse perfectly well. You can discuss with your tutor whether a tablet would be beneficial for your specific goals.

How do online Illustrator lessons work?

Our online lessons take place in a purpose-built virtual classroom with video chat, screen sharing, and an interactive whiteboard. Your tutor can see your screen to guide you through techniques in real-time, making it feel just like they're right there with you.

What can I learn with an Illustrator tutor?

Anything you want! You can learn logo design, character illustration, typography, creating patterns, vectorising sketches, and preparing files for print or web. Your lessons are tailored to your personal creative or professional goals.

How do I find the right Illustrator tutor for me?

You can use our search filters to find tutors based on their experience, price, and availability. Read their profiles and student reviews to get a sense of their teaching style and find the perfect match for your learning needs.

How long does it take to get good at Illustrator?

This depends on your starting point and how much you practice. However, with a tutor, you'll learn much faster than on your own. They can help you overcome common hurdles quickly, meaning you could feel confident with the basics in just a few weeks.

Can a tutor help me with a specific design project?

Yes! Many students seek out a tutor for help with a specific university assignment, a branding project for their business, or a personal illustration. A tutor can provide expert guidance to help you execute your project to a professional standard.

Are the tutors professional illustrators and designers?

Yes, many of our tutors are professional graphic designers, illustrators, and artists with real-world industry experience. We have a strict vetting process, accepting only 1 in 8 applicants, to ensure you're learning from qualified experts.
