I tried to bring some of my tutorials online and had some good comments here (thanks!)

So I decided to publish my entire photo retouching course. My Photoshop training experience is not too great (in fact I'm working as PS instructor for about 2,5 years and have about 6 years of PS experience) but I had worked with more than 100 students, both amateur and professional photographers and designers.
Here is the contents of the course (as it is taught "offline"; may be online version should have some differences).
Lesson 1. Introduction.
Lesson 2. Monitor calibration.
Lesson 3. Working with RAW.
Lesson 4. Basic image adjustments: Levels.
Lesson 5. Understanding Curves.
Lesson 6. Understanding Layers.
Lesson 7. Layers: blending modes guide.
Lesson 8. Adjustment Layers. Layer Masks.
Lesson 9. Image modes: RGB, CMYK and LAB.
Lesson 10. Advanced Curves. Part I.
Lesson 11. Advanced Curves. Part II.
Lesson 12. Digital noise reduction.
Lesson 13. Selection basics.
Lesson 14. Advanced selection.
Lesson 15. Retouching tools.
Lesson 16. Converting to B/W and duotone images.
Lesson 17. Old photos restoration.
Lesson 18. Portrait retouching 1.
Lesson 19. Portrait retouching 2.
Lesson 20. Using actions for automating work.
BONUS lesson. Digital photo frames: ideas, creation techniques and LARGE frames collection.

This course is for those who have beginner/intermediate Photoshop experience. I believe it gives good knowledge base for further learning.
If you like the idea - please let me know :)

Here is the link for lesson 1, "Introduction":

I have some problems with translating my course into English (it's not my native language) - I just don't know many necessary phrases. If anybody could help me with that - please let me know.
Waiting for your comments!

I like that touch with the mouse. Makes it very interactive. :)
