I’ve had my Silhouette for about 3 years (still in box) until I found SilhouetteU! I’m learning more & more each each day. Great tutorials & leadership! Thank you

I am new to the Silhouette world and have found these courses as an excellent way to learn the software system. I like the video courses..... Melissa is very organized and to the point. She is very clear in her explanations and provides many tips that have help reduce the time and material it would take to learn those lessons on my own. By having the courses recorded I am able to stop in the middle of a course, try doing the steps myself on my PC and gain confidence that I fully understand the process. I am so excited and happy with my Cameo 4 Pro.
Thank you for spending the time document this training for us.

I struggled a bit with my Silhouette Cameo 4 when I first got it, but these courses made it so easy to learn how to use it. I like that Melissa is down to earth and explains things in a way that's easy to follow. She rarely edits out portions of the process, or even the occasional slip-ups, so it feels more like you're actually sitting in a room with her, as opposed to most impersonalized, sterilized instructional video courses. Highly recommended!

My Sister gave me the Cameo 4 as a retirement present. I had never used a Cricuit or any type of cutting machine and I was more than overwhelmed when I began trying to use it. Melissa's explanations and thoroughness have made my struggles much easier and I am enjoying learning new things with each video! Thank you Melissa!!

Hi, I’m struggling with trying to watch the videos as they keep freezing, poor internet where I live. I’m trying to find someone who actually teaches a class somewhat close as I am better at learning with “hands on” I will keep trying the videos and maybe one day it will all click!?!?

The best place to start and I am guessing an even better place to continue. I'd be lost without it

I am new to using the silhouette cameo 4 - thank goodness for Silhouette U—-it’s has really helped me with the use of my new ‘toy’

I had never used any kind of Cricut or Silhouette machine so was a bit nervous after buying the Cameo 4. However joining Silhouette U was a brainstorm that has been amazing. In a matter of weeks, I've taken all the beginner classes and am already turning out projects left and right. My husband is amazed and how the Silhouette has changed our home decor and I've given him a list of projects he needs to make out of wood so that I can use the Silhouette on them. The videos are very easy to watch and understand and the discounts on purchases, etc. are very helpful. Thanks SU!

The tutorials are easy to follow and Melissa always gets right to the point! I love her easy to learn from style !! Great value for the money!! Stop wasting time and join today!

Love all the information and ideas. Melissa's tutorials arr easy to follow and fun.

The videos and blogs that they post online are well worth the tuition paid. Because as a first time craft machine user getting a cameo 4 pro I was in over my head. Now I’m treading water and learning things every day. Thank you

I bought the first Cameo from a friend who sold it because there was not much information on how to use the software. I thought I was pretty tech savvy so I could figure it out- haha. Well, it didn't take long to understand why she sold it! Whenever there was something I wanted to make, I researched SilhouetteSchoolblog to muddle through what I needed. I thought about selling the cameo too when my husband surprised me with a Cameo 4 for Christmas! I thought-ok I have to figure this out. SilhouetteSchoolblog to the rescue again. Then recently, Melissa offered a discount on SilhouetteU. I decided to try it and watch the videos from the just getting started and WOW!!! I learned so much from the first lesson!!! Who knew there was a cutting edge on the back of the Cameo??? Or a way to hold rolls of vinyl on the front??? Needless to say I am thrilled to finally have a great resource to figure out the software. Thank you Melissa. I am truly finally learning all the things the software can do. My background is machine embroidery and quilting so I am already thinking of sooo many ideas that can merge the two. Honestly, it has helped me with that software too. I would recommend SilhouetteU to anyone. So informative and a great price!

I love it!!! Your explanations are thourough. You speak clearly and it is so great that I can pause and follow right along!

I should have joined when I first purchased my Silhouette. Would have saved myself a lot of money on wasted vinyl and time. The amount of free information SU puts out is amazing and I am extremely grateful for that - but there is more available with a subscription. I am working on creating sticker designs for my small business and have had lots of questions around design within Silhouette, the print and cut features, issues, etc. Between the Print and Cut ebook (which I highly recommend) and the resources in SU (including the fabulous Facebook group, I have been able to learn and work more/faster. To be honest, whenever I open my Silhouette Studio, I also open the SU up because I invariably have questions. One thing that I find especially helpful is if you do find anything on SU that you do not understand or that doesn't seem to work, you can reach out immediately to Facebook and/or Melissa and get real help. I can't tell you how many times I searched a dozen well-meaning blogs trying to find a current piece of information before joining SU. Well worth the money and watch for her incredible sales.

I have seen multiple ads for Silhouette U in my Facebook feed, so I knew that when I finally purchased my machine I would want to join this group.

Melissa does a great job of explaining how to use the machine to its fullest capabilities. The videos that she creates are very easy to follow and work with. I have not made it through them all, but I have already learned a great deal and I am continuing to watch and learn.

One of the drawbacks is that some of the videos are older and so while the overall process is the same, due to software updates the things that she is displaying are not found in the same place, or they may be retitled or there may be some enhancements that are not covered. When I find this to be an issue, I just take a screen shot and update what she has with what is actually there in my OneNote which is where I take notes.

I love having the discounts to places to purchase supplies. I wish there were more of those. I have used a couple of them so far. Every little bit helps.

When I purchase new things, I always read the manual and watch any videos regarding the use and care so that I know all that I can about the items. Melissa covers so much material that many people will miss if they don't read the manuals. It is a great way to learn.

The Silhouette company is well represented by all that Melissa shares. I wish that there was a way to do a hands on event but I understand the logistics of that are not really feasible. But in lieu of that, these videos are the best learning that I can get. I have recommended this to others who have joined as well.

Great job and I am very impressed by the quality of the materials, videos and education provided for those of us who are newbies, but want to learn to be well versed in the use of this machine!

Silhouette is very informative and helpful no matter how long you've owned your machine. Melissa explains everything so you understand it.

So glad that I signed up for this. Fantastic resource for learning everything that you need to know about Silhouette and any project that you are working on. Love it!

Just starting into this fun and amazing world of cutting machines. Silhouette U came highly recommend from a very special friend of mine who creates such amazing projects. I was so proud of my first two beginners projects and can't wait to learn so much more. I cannot wait until I get everything done for the day so I can sit down and learn and create things I have admired by others for so many years. Love Silhouette U!

I have learned some many more advanced techniques since I joined. All the videos have been so help full. No more going to YouTube and searching around for what I need help with. Melissa makes so easy to learn and fun to learn. I’ve been wanting to expand my crafter from tumblers, and know I’m confident that if I get stuck on something I know where I can go to get help. Thank you for everything you do.

Wanna learn more about Silhouette Studio you need to join Silhouette U. Great FB page with lots of help!!!

Easy to use and helpful for beginners !

All of the information I have received have been very helpful. I am new at all of this so, it is wonderful for me!! It is not ard to reach Melissa for more help if needed. I need to spend more time to understand the Silhouette 4!!! I love it.

precious

It would be nice to be able download tutorials to save for further reference when not on line

I can hardly tell you In words how much Silhouette U has helped me with my learning Silhouette and how to crate projects. I went from struggling to cut on my own to cutting all kinds of vinyl and using them on all kinds of different media, I can now make earrings, stencils, cut balsa woods and finally make my own designs to sell. Please if you haven’t tried Silhouette U then try it today, you can cancel at anytime, but once you join I don’t think you will. If quite affordable!

I am so thankful for Silhouette U and the guides that I have purchased. I have placed them all into a binder together and regularly use them to navigate my machine and software. This program and all that it offers with member exclusive content has been perfect to use! Thank you for all the hardwork and education!
