Course Description
Look on any job posting for any User Experience (UX) position, and you'll see "Communicate", "Collaborate" or "Present" as part of the description.
Communication is a vital part of UX, whether it's interviewing stakeholders, getting them to approve your designs, or even getting hired as a UX designer.
But design communication is a skill that is different from every day conversations: you may be the newest member of a team, trying to convince people who have worked with a tool for 20 years that it needs to be changed.
So how do you communicate as a designer?
In this course, I'll teach you the best practices for design communication, in design, research, and even interviewing. I'll go over opportunities where you will be asked to communicate, including interviews, workshops, and meetings. I will then end with how you can leverage design communication to get a job as a UX professional.
I hope you'll join me in learning how to communicate your designs.

Yeah it was making sense but the representation for the pointers could be more in a storytelling way or story board. With that i would have better digested.

The content is valuable. The course presentation is just PowerPoint slides with only typography which make it not engaging to finish a very short video. The audio is bad. It happens quite often for one sentence to be repeated a few times just to correct small grammar mistakes(?) (his English is perfectly fine to me). I wish that he can cut those repeated parts so it won't interrupt the listening experience. I feel like it's hard to concentrate on the lesson.

Simple, and to the point. With everyday examples that helps understand the theory.

Content is structured and easy to follow. Audio quality and random pauses has made it hard to focus at times because I always think my headphone or internet has stopped momentarily.
