A good teacher makes all the difference.
Do you remember your favorite teacher from school? You probably learned more in his or her classes than you learned anywhere else. The best teachers make learning easy and fun.
These are the kinds of tutors we have on our team. If you've ever tried to learn a skill but just didn't 'get' your teacher, we think you'll love learning with our instructors at Tuts+ Premium.
Some of the world's most sought after tutors work exclusively with Tuts+ Premium, providing in-depth courses and tutorials that can't be found anywhere else.

Learning should be social.
Our members-only forums are buzzing with students asking questions, providing answers, and discussing the lessons they're working on. Because in the best classrooms, you learn as much from your fellow students as you do from your teachers.
Since I have joined, my overall graphic performance and knowledge has increased tremendously. I have learned more in 6 months than I have in my classes in the past 2 years. Chris Diggs, Design student
Be at the cutting edge of your industry.
Formal schools can be useful, but they can also be left behind on cutting edge technologies. Getting new topics introduced into the curriculum can take a long time. Often, once the new technology is finally being taught, it's not new anymore!
We pride ourselves on getting you up to speed with the new technologies that are important in your industry, and we aim to do it faster than anyone else. Our agile publishing systems mean that we only need a few days to review and prepare lessons once they are created by tutors. You will often find yourself learning about new technologies within days of their release.

There's a lot of teaching out there, but sadly, not all of it is good. When you learn from people who are not proven experts, you risk picking up bad practices and outdated techniques. It's easy to learn from people like this—after all, their teaching is all over the internet—but is it the best thing for your education?
Every tutor working for Tuts+ Premium is hand-picked by our team of experts.
