All of these videos are designed with the beginner in mind. You will find plenty of guidance in these videos. They are made mostly as slide shows, just like in college so that they are easy to follow and usually short so that they contain just what you want to learn.  
The focus is on the iPad because a lot of people use them, and they are in fact as good as the desktop versions; although slightly differing in command sets.
Whether you are designing company logos, (Designer) or doing Comics (Designer or Photo or Publisher or putting together that blockbuster novel (Publisher), or just tidying up the family photo album (Photo) you will find something here for you.
From Novice to professional there is always something.
