The curriculum was well-crafted, covering all aspects of product design, from fundamentals of UIUX designs, all the way down to designing my own projects. I loved how we were always challenged to do several designs this really helped improve my knowledge in design thinking as well.

Photoshop was a bit scary software for me before. This class really helped boost my self confidence with photoshop. I was able to create some designs nicely. The tutor was also always ready to respond whenever I needed help. I recommend this academy for anyone that wants to learn how to design effectively
