Here at photography courses London dot org our most frequent question we get asked is ‘What’s the best photography course in London?’ This is an impossible question to answer as you cannot compare photography courses that teach different techniques, abilities and styles. People ask the question because they want to go on the best course available. This is understandable but you need to realise that everyone is unique and therefore different courses will suit different people. This is why we think a better question to ask is ‘how do I find the best course for me?’
To find out what are the best photography courses London has to offer, you need to ask yourself several questions
What level of photography are you at?
We normally would split this up into beginner, intermediate, advanced and professional. It would be pointless for a beginner to go and learn about advanced techniques when it would be more beneficial for them to learn about the basics. There may be a really great photography course that they are interested in but if is too advanced then they would be disappointed as they would not get a lot out of it. The same applies for an advanced photographer attending a beginner’s class.
What are you looking to gain from the course?
It is important to write down what you are looking for and what are the main things you want to learn. Write these learning aims down and try to be specific as possible. It is then a good idea to contact the organisation running the course and ask them if their course covers these topics. If they do not, then you can ask them if they can refer you to another organisation which does.
Once you have answered these two questions you can begin to identify the course that will suit you and fulfil your needs. You can then start to ask yourself the following questions
- What is my price range?
- When am I free to attend?
- Where is it reasonable for me to travel to and how long does it take?
When you know all the answers to these questions you will be able to find your perfect course a lot easier. You will be able to narrow down the courses that are appropriate for you and your specific conditions. We hope that this helps you find perfect course out of the many photography courses London has to offer.
