This course is for your if
you read a lot about design theory, but there is a
gap between your theoretical understanding and practice
, or
you completed a design bootcamp (or you are in the process of completing one) but you
don't have a plan for developing your designer eye
on a consistent basis, or you just simply
need a
systematic approach
to develop your skills So if
You are in the process of

This course is NOT
This is
not a comprehensive design curriculum
, review what is included in the course before purchasing it.
I
won't teach you
how to use
a certain design tool
(e.g. Figma or Sketch). However, you'll find most of the practice activities inside a Figma file, so it is easier to complete the assignments if you have a Figma account (it is free).
The course is
not about an end-to-end UX/UI design process
.
My goal
I'm a design mentor and teacher with 10+ years of professional experience, and throughout my years I've noticed that
many designers don't know how to develop their design (UX, UI and visual design) skills effectively
. They attend a bootcamp or some online courses, then they don't really know how they can improve their design skillset. I wish I had known these tactics and approaches when I was a beginner designer! If you are searching for a comprehensive, A to Z design course, then this is not the one you are after. However, my suggestion is that you should still apply this as a
complementary course
(e.g. if you are in the process of completing a design bootcamp), I promise that you will find a lot of gems inside it!
My goal is to constantly improve the course material
, the first update is going to be a new section about UX Audits!
