Teaching UX Design
Teaching and mentoring aspiring UX designers through online courses, hands-on workshops and real-world projects.
Where I’ve taught
A global tech school that has helped over two million people learn in-demand skills and launch tech careers. I taught live online UX design courses there, guiding small cohorts through hands-on, project-based learning.
A Stockholm school of communication, design and technology, with bachelor’s, portfolio and online programmes. I shared my UX design experience with its students.
Delivering practical UX skills
I taught UX design courses online, guiding students through the full design process from research and ideation to prototyping, testing and presenting. Alongside the core curriculum, I created my own Figma workshops, ran interactive exercises, provided feedback and supported students on their projects.
Custom workshops and group activities
Alongside the core curriculum, I created and delivered my own Figma workshops and collaborative group activities to help students put theory into practice. These sessions encouraged students to explore ideas, share perspectives and learn from one another.
Providing support for students
I provided ongoing support through 1:1 mentoring sessions, personalised feedback and practical guidance throughout students’ projects, building their confidence and encouraging them to think critically about their design decisions.
What I learned
Kind, specific feedback builds confidence
Students grew fastest when feedback was personal, patient and practical. It built their confidence as much as their skills.
Doing beats explaining
Hands-on Figma workshops and group activities helped students put theory into practice far better than talking through it.
Teaching sharpens my own design
Explaining the design process step by step made me clearer about my own decisions and how I communicate them.
