Overall I enjoyed the course. I took the course because I was looking to make the jump from photoshop to Sketch. I would have loved to see less copying of other logo's and more doing things from scratch. It was helpful to visualize logos and designs as shapes but when you were duplicating other logos i find that to be less applicable to the real world. I would have loved to do the firefox logo from scratch and see how you would attack that if it was coming from your own creative direction. I also wanted more web design but i understand you have another course so I will be sure to check that one out!

This has the makings of a 5-star course, but in it's current form it is pretty average. There is a lot of repetition and most of the course just involves duplication of logos and screenshots. The techniques learnt are very basic and are repeated often. They also do not follow 'best-practices' used in the industry. His lack of focus on symmetry, pixel fitting and the use of geometric shapes bothered me. Instead of continually tracing complicated icons and the such with the vector tool, Arend should have instead used them as references. It would have been far more beneficial to see design from the ground-up rather than a 'copy-paste' approach. You don't learn design in this course. You learn how to use Sketch.

Fantastic class. I undertook a UX/UI freelance project with no prior Sketch experience. The first few chapters were more than worth it. I was able to finish the project on schedule. Thanks!
