Philippe was great! Always super friendly, provided good answers to my questions and his feedback forced me to think deeper about my work. He stayed an extra half hour with me multiple times on 1:1 calls and those really helped confirm and solidify my understanding of OOUX and the application for the switcheroo design challenge. Thanks for all your feedback and help Philippe!
Philippe helped me grasp challenging concepts by connecting them to real-world examples and sharing relevant experiences from his own background. He provided assignment feedback through thoughtful questions that pushed me to explore the material more deeply.
Throughout this process, Philippe has been a wonderful mentor. Even during a period of illness, he consistently replied promptly to my assignments and questions, always offering thought-provoking guidance that pushed my understanding of the course content in the context of my PicklePro Design Challenge. He has been very approachable, supportive, and easy to speak with at any stage of the journey. His insights and encouragement have made a difference to my experience, and I am grateful for his support.
I've learned the hard way that building digital interfaces that have a design-first approach is not future proof. The OOUX certification has been a revelation, helping me seeing the world of users without blinkers on and really noticing the things that matter to them in their context and the context of the product I’m building. The ORCA methodology clicked for me in a way that made me want to redesign everything I'd ever worked on!But here's what really sets this certification course apart: the cohort community is exceptional. You get a mentor who’s going to give you personalised guidance that will challenge your thinking and share their expertise in ways that push you to explore more or look at things differently. I feel the mentors don't just teach – they inspire, encourage, and help you grow both professionally and personally. And then there's Sophia, whose magnetic enthusiasm for OOUX draws everyone in. She's everywhere in the community, sharing insights and cheering everyone on with genuine excitement.Fair warning: this is a hard course but it’s totally worth it. Once you start seeing the world in objects, you can't unsee it - and that's exactly what makes this course so brilliant.
