My education, career, and even personal life have been molded by one simple principle; well designed information resonates with people and can change lives. I have a passion for making information resonate. It all starts with how people think. With how humans work. As humans we have learned how to read and write and while that is incredible, we are also already hard-wired to do some things a bit more "automatically". We are animals â designed to see things things as a whole. To start with a big picture and build understanding as we break it down. To learn from the visual. The spacial. The tangible. Information can be all of these things. The difference is design. I am a designer who uses the art, science, and psychology of design to nurture effective communication and facilitate enjoyable experiences. Through over 10,000 hours of one-to-one teaching for one of the largest software companies in the world and over a decade of exploring the visual arts, I have learned to make information work for people. "People ignore design that ignores people." - Frank Chimero

I have been used Sketch for a while before i got to this course. This tool is absolutely top! The material in the course indeed doesn't show how the instructor is creating stuff, some beginners might not like it. But for me as somewhat experienced user this was extremely helpful to finally put my knowledge in order. Thank you for the course Joseph!
However it would be nice to include some more optional information for the complete newbies.

Really nice layout to the teaching, it works for me! He goes over different skills within different modules as well which refreshes your memory! Well worth the bargain price of 12.99!

Videos are very informative

Very good instructor.

By Tony Buford on 11/7/2020

Excellent match. Heavy Photoshop/Illustrator experience, but never used Sketch and never designed mobile interactive before, except WYSIWIG in Adobe Muse. Course is showing the real useful benefits of the program, always with a note that "there's more".

By Rene Bartkowiak on 11/7/2020

One of the best courses I have seen on Udemy so far. Well done!

He is one of the beste Tutors I have seen in my 13 years as a Designer. He is precious, you have to protect him by any means.

By David Vargas on 10/14/2020

Great course for getting started in Sketch and UI design. I missed some things that are still essential, such as prototyping (the Sketch native method is not covered, but there is one tiny extra lesson about inVision prototyping) or how to create "scrollable" artboards, which includes resizing and positioning constraints. However, the course will get you started and any student that completes it can surely continue learning autonomously.
In summary: slightly improvable, but VERY recommended for Sketch beginners!
