I felt like I was guided through all the right steps of how to present a design project. Each section really helped me understand the flow and process from designing to presenting to finances all while letting my creativity shine! I'd highly recommend taking this course because of how easy the sections are to follow, and you can make great projects all the while!

I loved the opportunity to receive real, thoughtful feedback from Mindy and Sarah throughout the course. Their feedback allowed me to incrementally uplevel my designs and come away with a finished product I was really proud of. They're also the sweetest and it was so fun working with them as instructors after having collaborated with them previously as a client. <3

Creating my portfolio was my favourite because I had full creative expression and could create something that reflected my values and vision! I have had so many people reaching out to work on projects and on brands from my portfolio. It feels amazing to be working freelance with such creativity.

The way my levels of confidence as a designer shot right up is insane! Oh, it skyrocketed after completing the first section alone. I cannot give enough praise to the curators of the course. If you want to expand your graphic design knowledge in a totally fun and immersive way, this is for you.

I wanted to learn about design in a fun environment where I felt that the instructors' style matched my own and made me excited to try something new. It was a no brainer when I found ilovecreatives. Through the course I gained a real appreciation for process and design thinking, not just beautiful design. When you create thoughtful concept with design justified decisions, that's how you create something that not only looks good but also is well thought out and actually fulfills the brief.

My favorite part of the course was learning a couple new tools I didn't know before that I now use all the time, along with getting 1-1 feedback multiple times that has transformed my portfolio! I also love the foundry recommendations and the mock ups... I use those all the time. I now feel pretty good about my portfolio both from my projects and the layout of the entire portfolio. I'm not embarrassed to send it!

I loved picking fonts, playing with color schemes, and drawing logos. My portfolio and my confidence are looking much more robust now. I feel good calling myself a graphic designer now, my current design work started looking better, and I have already gotten more freelance work because of it.

What I enjoyed most about the Graphic Design Course is the online community. Being able to move through the course with the kind of people that ilovecreatives attracts meant not working in a silo filled with creative doubt and perfectionism. After completing the course (and even during) I was able to show up more confidently for both myself and my clients. I came away with an even deeper grasp of a creative language I had spent so many years teaching myself. And now I feel even more equipped to broaden my capabilities.
