PYTA is worth the money for anyone serious having any amount of success on YouTube. The greatest value is the amount of time saved by having all the information organized in a consise and actionable manner. It’s possible one can learn this on your own, but likely not without having had extensive prior experience or going through many ups and downs. The learnings from PYTA are not a magic, one-shot, guaranteed method to success. Rather this gives your the workflows and focus on what matters. Your responsibility is to stay consistent, learn and iteratively improve.

I’ve gotten some big aha moments about titles, thumbnails, and other options for the flow of my YouTube videos. I’ve taught my GPT to better assist me by teaching what I’m learning from you along the way. I’m already seeing an increase in views on my channel. The most powerful part was level setting expectations of what I should post. I was telling myself to do more long form videos and all these things, but when he said 1 long form video and 2 reels per week that settled me and made things feel less overwhelming.

The Part-Time YouTuber Academy has transformed my YouTube journey. The course provided me with clarity and actionable steps to elevate my channel. The material is comprehensive, covering everything you need to get started or push your channel to the next level. What made the experience even better is Ali himself—he’s incredibly likable and keeps you fully engaged throughout each module. I’m extremely grateful for the value this course has brought to my content creation process!

The course is comprehensive and Ali flies through the various concepts very concisely, wasting nobody’s time. As a someone with an already full life, this is the value that I came for. 10/10, would recommend 👍

Part-Time YouTuber Academy is by far one of the best investments I made during my own YouTube journey. I got started back in 2021 without a clear vision of the trajectory of my channel. I’ve tried other YouTube courses where I learned the basics but struggled to grow. However, there’s just something about Ali’s style and communication that made me completely rethink how I view YouTube.

A Must-Have Skill. For Everyone
In today’s world, being able to speak confidently to a camera can genuinely change your life.
Whether you’re a YouTuber, a business-person who wants to communicate their ideas, or you have a lot of Zoom meetings, your confidence and comfort on camera is one factor that can really swing things in your favour.
The truth is, video plays a huge role in all our lives.
In fact, I’d go as far as saying that camera confidence is one of the most important skills in the 21st century.
Every day people are gaining an edge just because they’re able to express themselves better on camera, look comfortable in front of a lens, and hold people’s attention for longer.
Learning to be more confident on camera is the reason why people are able to:
There’s literally a million different ways that speaking on camera can improve your life. And it’s played a major role in building my entire career too.
How Camera Confidence Changed my Life
Just a few years ago I seriously struggled with my confidence, especially when it came to things like public speaking and talking in front of a camera. I enjoyed keeping to myself, never spoke up in front of an audience, and to this day I still have a slight stutter that’s never gone away. I’ve spent thousands of hours, and over $100,000 in courses and coaching programs to try and find the secret sauce that helps grow a channel and a business.
Seriously, the whole idea of being on camera scared me. I hated everything about it.
Yep, that’s me.
But, fast forward to today, I’ve developed my camera confidence to the point that millions of people watch my YouTube videos, hundreds of thousands listen to my podcast, and I’ve somehow built a multimillion dollar business where all the revenue basically comes from me speaking in front of a camera. It’s mind-blowing.
When I first started taking active steps to improve my confidence, I found it really uncomfortable talking to the camera. I over-thought everything, felt self-conscious about what other people thought of me, and honestly never thought I’d be where I am today.
But, I am so glad I stuck with it 😁
There’s probably no higher-leverage skill than being more confident on camera. And, as I’ve found, it’s a skill we’re all able to learn.
The Struggle is Real
Being comfortable on camera can be tough and it doesn’t come naturally to most of us.
Even if you imagine yourself to be this happy and engaging person, things can very quickly change as soon as you hit the record button. Some of us freeze. Some of us feel awkward and uncomfortable. Some of us just stumble over our words and struggle to string a single sentence together.
It’s painful.
This pain may not even end after you stop recording either. If you’re like me, you’ve probably watched back one of your videos and thought “oh my god, why is this so bad?”. You cringe at listening to your own voice and realise your worst fears: you’re as boring, monotone, and incoherent as you feared.
For many of us, we think this is a good reason to stop trying and tell ourselves that if we’re not confident on camera already then we don’t have much hope.
But, this isn’t true. You can learn to be more confident and highly engaging on camera, regardless of how bad you are when we start.

So, what’s the secret to increasing your camera confidence? Let me show you.
The Secret to Being
Confident on Camera
The secret is simple: practice.
The more you put yourself in uncomfortable situations and stretch your comfort zone, especially on camera, the more confident you’ll be. So, even if you’re the sort of person right now that gets nervous, anxious, or experiences brain fog when stepping in front of a camera, with time and practise this will go away.
It’s a skill that can be learned.
Yes, it’s hard. Yes, you’ll feel uncomfortable. Yes, you’ll want to give up.
But, with the right guidance and a little bit of patience you can reach your goal of being super confident on camera. All you need is a camera you already own, a phone, or a webcam. It doesn’t really matter. The important thing is that you show up every day and put in the reps.
There’s actually something else too.
It’s taken me hundreds, if not thousands, of hours to get to where I am today. I’ve been putting in the reps for over 5 years now and I’ve been through all the pain a beginner has when first learning to be more confident on camera. It’s hard work.
But, it doesn’t have to take this long. Or be that painful. In fact, it can be a lot of fun and with the right direction, support, and practical advice you can get there in a fraction of the time. A handful of hours, not hundreds of hours.
This is what I will teach you in this course.
“Even though I’ve been on YouTube for almost 2 years, I’ve always wanted to be more natural and confident on camera, just like Ali. I thought it was an innate ability, rather than a skill you could learn, but this course proved me wrong! With each module, I learnt the mindset, skills and techniques I needed to feel more relaxed when filming. This course has helped me to channel my own personality, and show up in front of the camera more authentically – which is essential for me to connect with my audience on YouTube.”
Akta
YouTuber
“The course didn’t make you feel like you had to change your whole personality: the tips help you bring out the best of your natural presence, not craft a camera persona from scratch. ‘Remaining yourself’ being one of the main tenets of the course made improvements feel authentic but also much more achievable.
I also thought it was great how the course was not just about camera confidence for youtube, but also about other youtube skills (like scriptwriting) and other confidence skills (ie not just when filming).”
