Kate,
There is a computer and camera free learning workshop classes at HP.com. You take it at your own pace and learn so much. I took the professional photography class there and what a difference it makes. It isn't hard, it is just a matter of taking the time to learn.
ps) You do not have to own a hp in order to attend classes there.
Here is the link to the site.
