Hey guys, need a little advise. I'm going to give a course on Photoshop next week. I do know how to use Photoshop and all but I really don't know how to explain basics or what do people want to know that is basic.
Could you guys help me with some pointers on what to teach them?
Thanks!

I'll take a look. But what I was mostly asking is what parts or things should I teach them? Layers, how to use tools? Don't know if it's TOO basic.
I'd highly recommend going over smart objects. I've worked with graphic designers more experienced than me who had no idea how to use smart objects for non-destructive editing or creating templates.
Layers, blending options, styles, adjustment layers, applying smart filters to smart objects. I think that's all golden info for working with files that may need adjusting later without having to start over.
Maybe even history snapshots and using artboards.

I forgot to ask if you've seen Terry White's videos for things like "10 Things Beginners Want To Know About [Adobe_Program]"?

Yeah, I've checked them out. They seem TOO basic for me, but maybe I should start from there.

Don't forget to cover masks and clipping masks

If 101:
Day 1: Learning to use a tablet.
Sketch lines and shapes, then 30 sec sketches of figures.

Oh, and brushes; make them use different brushes when they are doing all that.
