Memorisely

Although I met some kind people during my bootcamp, I can’t justify the amount of money I spent learning something that could’ve easily been found via YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, etc. I mean a lot of what was covered was already written by N&N and other... Read More design companies. I feel like Zander just copy and paste the information on slides and says “hey teach this!” Really not worth the money. Looking at the state of UX/UI jobs and how layoffs/economy, it’s hard to say it’s “plentiful” work out there. If you look at who works for Memorisely you can see that the teachers have maybe 2+ years of experience and then the TAs have 0-1… after we graduated I caught up with some of the alumni and asked how they felt and it seemed to lean on the “we learned Figma, and not much of …UX/UI” so let that be an indication. There’s so many boot camps out there, and I mean who knows if they’re any better but Zander is also trying to capitalize on profit from people trying to learn and change careers so that should also be in consideration. Most of all just look at their alumni, many don’t actually work in design, a lot went back to their jobs before and some have ux/ui jobs with small companies with 1-10 people… ouch!

Very pricey at $3500. Literally you wont learn any UI/UX as promised. You'll learn how to use figma and how to use a bit of dovetail and maze. All the important UX stuff you find anywhere is totally skipped over and the UI is non existent. Really disappointed... Read More as had big hope but was a massive let down. End of the course you're all happily graduating with less knowledge (and money) than if you'd watched some free youtube tutorials! In the career classes you are basically told to lie on your CV and if you check out the instructors LinkedIn you'll see none of them have any previous design experience! Team mates are nice, tutors are nice but didn't pay $3500 to meet nice people! Avoid it if you're looking to learn actual UI/UX instead of just programmes

I was disappointed with my time at the Memorisely Bootcamp. Their team of Teachers and "TA's" are super unorganized (Late to sessions, never respond, or respond with an uninformative response). The teacher I had didn't speak English as well as the others... Read More and taught the curriculum extremely fast... so it was hard to follow along with what was being taught. The TA was also no help and referred us to youtube videos for extra support, but it made sense since she had no prior background in UX/UI Design. I felt disappointed since I decided to transition into UX/UI Design and had a bad experience.

Very unorganized curriculum, and experience. A costly BootCamp with a low hire rate after graduation. You meet 2 times a week with your teacher, but you will find that the sessions move fast and you end up having to re-read on your own time or become... Read More very lost. • They use the same case study's as the cohorts before and you'll find that your work is essentially cookie-cutter with your other classmates. • They teach the basics of UX/UI and not really how you would use it when you get into the workforce, as you may see a lot of alumni are jobless and still searching for their first job in UX/UI because of Memoriselys lack of education on current design methodologies and tools (FYI Notion is not used in many companies) • They have the same imagery and or style in their curriculum and in return, you can see that many students have a Memorisely styled portfolio and work with no originality. In short, I'd look else where and not follow the hype!

When I started the Bootcamp I had a slight idea of how to use the design thinking method, but overall I was lacking a process and simplified steps to follow in order for me to make it actionable.
The Memorisely Bootcamp gave me exactly that, it allowed... Read More me to see Design Thinking as a group of actionable steps I could follow simply and generate great results after it! It also boosted my confidence as designer and allowed me to translate all of the exercises and insights into my work. I even got a new job!
The botcamp not only changed the way I work but it definitely changed my life in the best way!

Thank you for creating this amazing course!

The Memorisely UX/UI Bootcamp was an absolutely amazing experience. Memoriesly has the best instructors, they are so energetic, patient, and kind. Memorisely puts in the time and effort to make the class personable, interactive, and fun. I can honestly... Read More say I have learned more from his 8 week Bootcamp than I did in some of my University courses that were semesters long. I feel extremely prepared for my job search and I'm so excited to start applying for UX/UI positions.

It has been an amazing experience and extremely educational! I have learned the most during the design classes with Zander. Not only are the classes interactive but we also get feedback to improve our skills on the spot during class which speeds up the... Read More learning process. The community itself is very open and we get to see our fellow designers' work on their case studies which gives new perspectives. Finally, it's great that the Memorisely network is filled with friendly designers who are more than willing to help you out. :)

Every week I enjoyed a friendly and fun atmosphere. Each live session was structured by the approach to learn by doing and not just listening to the theory and following a PowerPoint slide. These course is focussing a bit more on the UX and it would be... Read More amazing to participate in one additional session about the UI.

The Memorisely UX/ UI was exactly what I needed in order to kick start my UX/ UI career. I have come out feeling excited, passionate and prepared for the world of design. Every interactive lesson was jam packed with lots of new information, activities... Read More and great discussions. Zander created a friendly and fun atmosphere throughout the entire bootcamp which allowed everybody to participate and learn from each other. 12/10!!! :)

Excellent courses, where information is presented in a live online discussion, I would also like to note that you always feel the full involvement and openness of the teacher. It is always possible to ask for something or share your experience during... Read More and after class. I really liked the format of live communication, communication between people from different countries, with different experiences and views on solving problems. In general, what is taught at the courses is suitable for those who are completely unfamiliar with the topic of design systems, as well as for those who already have some knowledge in this area, but would like to consolidate them at the appropriate level. I also liked the fact that Zander is open to suggestions for improving the course, always ready to listen to what you think can be improved. Of course, these classes will not be so effective without practice, everything you learn here needs to be tried by yourself, to find the most convenient way how to use this knowledge
In general, the courses are awesome, that was fun experience with great opportunity get some new contacts around the world
