At first I thought I wasted my tuition when TouchDesigner has so much free tutorial online, but I would say the studio course interaction and the foundational knowledge in the course is worth it. Xuan, the instructor, was very supportive through her feedbacks and did a lot of preparation for presenting the features and making the course engaging; if nothing goes wrong you'd present your work at EYEPOOL or a similar gallery/symposium!
