I signed up for Avocademy's UX/UI Foundations course after taking different, smaller courses through Udemy. I needed to make a career change and I wanted a field that could provide stability for many years to come. Avocademy factors in people's lives,... Read More they understand how much time you can commit to the courses. There are mentors available to give guidance, review projects, and give feedback that will benefit your learning and the projects. The one downfall with the reviewing of projects is that multiple mentors can review the same project and potentially give different comments on the same sections contradicting the other. It becomes quite frustrating. Also, sometimes, it's clear that the mentors copy and paste comments in the rubrics or when responding to our submissions. Overall, I would recommend Avocaemy. The mentors that lead videos in the lessons, you can tell how passionate they are and they genuinely want to help you. With ever-growing students, they are adapting the courses and finding what's true and tested.
