im also self-taught designer and got my first design job after 8 months. i didn't have a portfolio but what helped me landed the job and more projects was CONNECTIONS. even now i still dont have a portfolio lol.

the lesson here is, put yourself out there and start networking.

Hello Aliena, I don’t know if you’ll even see this but in case you do, I want to say thank you very much. I have been feeling very scared and intimidated by creating a portfolio and you have just wiped all that worry away. Thank you for being a great teacher and for sharing your knowledge. Thank you, thank you.

I'm currently doing my Google UX Design course peer review and I'm watching your video as motivation to become a UX designer. Thank you so much.

I'm actually 1.5 years into learning how to be a full stack developer on my own. It feels like chasing my own tail when trying to learn on my own but even watching your videos regarding UX design helps me structure my project goals. Currently working on my second web portfolio from scratch ( for practice of course ) and I am currently struggling with designing it just as much as coding it. So thank you for this awesome content Aliena!

I'm currently in the final stretch of finishing the Google UX Design course and am still finding things a bit nerve wracking. Thank you for making this video! I was incredibly nervous about making a portfolio.

I am currently learning about UX Design and I must say you are truely a gem, you share things which other people dont even talk about. Thank you and please keep posting about UX stuff. :)

A millions THANKS for making me find building a Porfolio bit easy for me unlike before. I have spent day, week searching for how to build a porfolio for myself. You are a real Mentor!

[AltruHistic]

this is very helpful. I must say as a UX master student in my last semester I am disappointed they taught us NOTHING related to building a portfolio. I sent feedback to the school so they will hopefully incorporate this for future students.

Finally a video that ACTUALLY tells about how to prepare a a lot

I love your videos because you share things that people don’t talk about. I’ve been struggling to present my portfolio well and these tutorials are really helpful.

Hey Aliena! Currently I teach Business English to mainly Russian IT guys, many of whom are pursuing UX/UI as a future career. Also, I'm planning to do the Google UX course myself next year! Like you, I plan to be totally self-taught. I love your approach and I'm looking forward to learning more from someone who has been through the journey! I'll definitely see you more next year! Thanks!

Building the website was… amazing! You breezed through square space and it looked so clean.

[ingridrautemberg]

Amazing and honest! I've watched so many videos on this subject, but Aliena gets to the point and cuts out the unnecessary. Thank you :P

[TheRandomChinwe]

Yeah a new Aliena video! The portfolio is never done! Thanks for this video
