Why our students love learning with BYOL
“if you know nothing about Premiere Pro and are intimidated by its interface, look no further than this video. I was self-taught and can't believe how much vital information I was missing. I'm halfway through this course and feel like I could take on the world (of video editing). Dan is as excellent as always at explaining the complexities in a user-friendly way, and the knowledge stays with me far...”
“I really enjoy the course! Dan explains the "nerdy" things in the most engaging way, I often catch myself giggling, while following the instructions. Plus, it really helps in my work, my videos are improving.”
“I had taken a different Premiere Pro course that left me still questioning how to do things. I had taken another course with Daniel and looked for him specifically because I loved his style of teaching. He makes everything seem so easy and I leave feeling much more knowledgable and excited about what I'm learning! Wish all the instructors were like him!! Top Notch A+++++++”
“Amazing course! As someone who felt overwhelmed by the interface alone the first time I opened Premiere Pro, I now feel not only comfortable with the program but also confident in my video editing skills. Couldn't recommend it more. Truly the best Premiere Pro course out there for beginners.”
“I recently completed the "Adobe Premiere Pro Essentials Course" it was an excellent experience. The instructor has an outstanding command over each and every aspect of Premiere Pro. Every tool, technique and feature was explained in depth with practical assignments. The teaching method was exceptional - very clear, structured, and easy to follow even for complex topics. I learned a lot of new thin...”
“I love these classes, and everything is easy to follow and well explained. The comments help out too because you might be working on a new version of a particular product, and the tutorials could be working on an earlier version.”
“I've been longing to learn video editing, especially on Premiere Pro, as it is one of the essential skills needed as a graphic designer. Dan made it a bit easier to learn through his way of teaching. Plus, matching his good sense of humor—haha—so it's not boring. Thank youuu, Sir. c:”
“I like how the concepts are explained in great detail for absolute beginners like me. They are easy to follow.”
“I am appreciating the flow of the class and the instructor's style. It is informal yet informative. I do a bit of video editing in my job, but only knew very basic elements. This course has been helping me learn shortcuts and some tricks I did not know before. Looking forward to getting into more material about things I have not used before and how to make the videos look and sound better.”
“Best of the best”
“Lively, clear instructions, good resources.”
“This is a really wonderful course, structured in a very beginner friendly manner”
“Yes i love this course. It's easy to understand and its fun to learn. Really helpful.”
“Hey AA, how can we help? Just let us know in the Q@A section of the course. Don’t forget you can always slow me down a little if you think that will make things a little easier.If you hover over the video, there's a button next to the pause / skip button that displays '1x', click this to change the speed of the video. Then just run them at whatever suits you best. DWS”
“He is extremely engaging and has a unique teaching style that doesnt put you to sleep. I absolutely love it and cannot wait until I take more courses by this teacher.”
“This is a great course - well explained, engaging, and bite-sized projects that let you practice skills without being too overwhelming”
“Good so far! Probably should have taken this one before AE because this seems easy by comparison haha”
“Dan is an amazing instructor, has great knowledge and explains things really well. Came here after his Photoshop Essentials course. Looking forward to taking more new courses from him.”
“I went in with zero knowledge of Adobe Premiere; not even the basics. Dan explains everything in a logical way that actually builds skills. By the end of the course, I had made a how-to video at work and received high praise for it. Highly recommended for beginners that want to go from no clue to producing real results.”
“Absolutely incredible course! No stone is left unturned, yet he manages to keep us engaged and even entertained.”

Founder of Bring Your Own Laptop & Chief Instructor

I discovered the world of design as an art student when I stumbled upon a lab full of green & blue iMac G3’s. My initial curiosity around using the computer to create ‘art’ developed into a full-blown passion, eventually leading me to become a digital designer and founder of Bring Your Own Laptop.
Sharing and teaching are a huge part of who I am. As a certified Adobe instructor, I've had the honor of winning multiple Adobe teaching awards at their annual MAX conference. I see Bring Your Own Laptop as the supportive community I wished for when I was first starting out and intimidated by design. Through teaching, I hope to bring others along for the ride and empower my students to bring their stories, labors of love, and art into the world.
True to my Kiwi roots, I've lived in many places, and currently, I reside in Ireland with my wife and kids.
