I have done it everything he says is right 👍

Shorts are a good idea. A well-delivered message indeed. This is the reason why I asked you about their typography page, so as to know if I should level it alone.
Thanks for all your help.

I am currently busy learning 'medical billing/coding' to go with my medical transcription adventure ... but ... picking up tidbits about design is very helpful. I am not dedicating any time to them, but I am still absorbing things passively and at my own pace.

The peer review aspect is horrible! My graded wireframes "failed" because one user gave me a 0%, checking that I missed each of the required aspects. I resubmitted an unchanged link to get a 100%.

I agree with your videos that a Google employee should also be grading and moderating things.

What would be 10 things you would advice to learn for an newbie user experience designer?

I have been reading articles, some classic UX books like Design of everyday things, don't make me think, hooked etc. Also been taking UX/UI courses to get more knowledge and practice in, but I am still very confused on what do I really need to get in to get my first UX/UI job, and what are the best practices on every part of the UX process atleast sufficient to get me in. ( Because you can learn further once you're in).

Deeply appreciate you making content that relates to juniors in the field, it makes it feel less gatekeep-ed.

Yeah, the peer review was pretty disappointing. I’m currently finishing Course 2.

Hi, I'm looking through your "Learn UI for Free" playlist and the video "How to design a login form? - UX / UI Design Tutorial - Free UI Design Course" is set for Members Only. I assume it's not supposed to be like that?

@Malewicz what do you think about Uxcel?

The peer review aspect is the worst idea in the long sad history of bad ideas.
