They have the freedom of choosing whether or not to skip some lessons and advance to another topic or if they want of spend more time on a particular subject they're interested in.
You can find any type of Photoshop tutorial on the Internet, whether it is a Photoshop tutorial that explains the basics of the software or a more advanced tutorial that goes into the details of the software. Those who start learning the workings of Photoshop are encouraged to develop enough understanding of how it actually works, they must be able to use the instructions offered in a Photoshop tutorial in order to create an entirely different and unique work.
There is an abundance of Photoshop tutorial on the Internet, and if one has the background and skills required for the software, one can assimilate the basic and intermediate knowledge required for using the software with the desired results.

However tutorials alone will never turn you into an expert. There is yet no substitute for the experience one gathers when working on tenths or hundreds of projects that range from the simple to the complicated.
An online Photoshop tutorial will prove to be effective if one has the inclination, the interest and the resources necessary. A Photoshop tutorial is just a method of learning it is up to what you do with it that will spell the difference.
