The School of UX (Pixel Takeaway Limited) Reviews 405

I recently completed The School of UX’s 1-week UX, AI, and vibe-coding course, and I’m so glad I did. It was a genuinely valuable experience that helped me grow as a designer. Sergei is a very patient and knowledgeable instructor, and his way of teaching made the whole week feel motivating and enjoyable. What stood out most was his enthusiasm and the care he puts into sharing his knowledge. I came away inspired and with skills I can actually use.

I took the Certified UX Design and AI Prototyping course in London, and it was great. Sergej took us through the complete UX design process and pinpointed ways to enhance it with AI. We created real projects with hosting, connection to data, and testing. Sergej has a great business perspective and plenty of insights. You can ask anything, and with his long experience and knowledge, he gives you new perspectives to work with. I liked it a lot and would recommend it to anyone who wants to stay relevant in the field.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Straightforward, Practical, and Insightful

I just finished a course at School of UX and can’t recommend it enough. Sergei’s teaching style is excellent—he has a very straightforward, no-nonsense approach that makes complex design concepts easy to grasp. His depth of knowledge is obvious, and he provides practical insights that you just don't get from standard tutorials. If you want to learn UX from someone who actually knows the industry inside out, this is the place to be!

I just finished the UX and AI course in Zurich and it was such a great experience. The topics were relevant, especially seeing how AI can actually be used in a real design workflow. Sergei was a great lecturer—really helpful, down-to-earth, and clearly knows so much of this field. If you're looking for a way to level up your design game, I'd definitely recommend it!

I had an extremely positive experience with The School of UX, and especially with Sergei.

Sergei is an exceptionally talented professional with a truly extensive knowledge of the end-to-end UX process. What really sets him apart, however, is his strong business and entrepreneurial mindset, combined with deep expertise in the latest topics: AI, vibe coding, front-end programming, code repositories, hosting, APIs, and third-party service integrations, as well as modern vibe-coding flows and MCP servers.

Professionals like him represent the very best the industry has to offer today, and embody what every designer should aspire to in order to stay relevant in these complex and rapidly changing times.

Thanks to his courses, it became increasingly clear to me that the future of UX is not just about mastering and covering all phases of the traditional process, but about combining those skills with an entrepreneurial mindset, focused on strategy, measurement, and delivering tangible, measurable outcomes.

Interacting with Sergei is a great opportunity: it allows you to learn complex topics much faster and to ask questions that would otherwise require months of individual study to answer. He is always highly professional, approachable, and insightful.

I highly recommend him.

Thank you again for your work, I’m sure we’ll cross paths again soon.

The three-week course was an incredibly valuable and transformative experience. The tutoring from Sergei, Chimmy, and Felice was phenomenal, each brought a unique teaching style, yet all were equally engaging, highly knowledgeable, and exceptional communicators. Their intelligence, patience, and genuine kindness created a supportive environment despite the intensity of the programme. The course was demanding and fast-paced, but the amount learned in such a short time was remarkable. Having previously fallen slightly out of love with UX design, this experience completely reignited my passion and renewed my confidence, leaving me feeling motivated and excited about the career path ahead. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity, particularly as the course was fully funded by the government and the Mayor of London, making this life-changing training accessible.

When I first signed up, I had no idea what the course would cover, but I'm so glad I took the bet on myself. During the 3 weeks of intense speedrunning, a whole new domain of knowledge was unlocked for me.

I couldn't have asked for better instructors to run through the intro to UX/UI design with AI integration than Sergei, Chimmy, and Felice.

Great! Intense! You learn a lot over 3 weeks but definitely a speedrun start that's helping the work I'm currently doing!
I really appreciated that it wasn't just lectures but hands-on experience too.

I learnt a huge amount from this course. The three weeks flew by far too quickly. Sergei, Chimmy and Felice were all excellent teachers, each with their own personality, and clearly passionate about what they do. They also have a real knack for explaining things in a way that actually sticks.

I could happily have stayed for a few more weeks, although by that point they, along with the rest of the class, might well have grown tired of my constant questions.

I was fortunate that the course was funded by the Mayor of London, but it would have been well worth paying for myself. I would happily recommend it to anyone considering it who wants to learn more about UX.

I joined the 3 week bootcamp, this course covers the whole UX process from initial research through design, to testing, analytics, and iteration.

Industry-standard tools and processes are briskly introduced with a mix of teaching and hands-on work.

The best value of the course for me came from the insights of experienced professionals, as well as the encouragement and feedback regarding personal projects and how to develop my software engineering career with UX in mind.

The tutors give you the flexibility to decide how to succeed in the course based upon what suits you best, whether that's using the given projects to build a portfolio, working on your own projects, or coming up with a business plan.

Participant selection seemed to work well, with a good mix of people from different career backgrounds who could approach UX design from different angles. It also means that the course was filled with people who were a pleasure to learn and work with.

Overall it is quite broad and intense, it can help you fill gaps in your knowledge even if you have experience in some areas of UX design, and the more you put into it the more you get out of it.

Sergei, Chimmy, and Felice are inspirational and explain things clearly with hands-on practical projects. I learnt new ways to solve problems and gained valuable insights from classmates and industry guests.

This school was not worth the 1,000 I paid for it, and I did not learn any tangible skills that could be used to land a job. Some portions were rushed, and concepts were not explained properly. It seems as if the school is trying to simply benefit from the popularity of UX without actually focusing on teaching real skills. I was told to not trust Trustpilot reviews, and now I believe it.

Ironically I had a pretty poor experience with this company. Internal process gaps left me feeling disappointed. Advised to apply to signup for a bootcamp on 10th Feb, that was competed immediately. Then told 3 days later that the cohort was now full.

I’d recommending proceeding with caution. Clearly a small business and not enough staff supporting behind the scenes.

I took the AI in UX bootcamp with Sergei and Chimmy, and it was a truly great experience. The teaching is grounded in real-life scenarios, the content is well condensed, and each lesson combines clear lectures with plenty of hands-on exercises.

Sergei makes time to give detailed feedback to everyone. His approach is kind, patient, and supportive, and he explains concepts through practical, real-world examples.

This has been one of the most inspiring bootcamps I’ve attended.

Many thanks to Sergei Golubev , Chimmy Kalu and Felice Hawley for the mind blowing transfer of knowledge and best practice guidance!

My skill set has expanded into vibe-coding, rapid prototyping, interactive design and the full Ux design life cycle.

My mindset into analytical problem solving thinking.

I've taken several courses with School of UX and they have always provided instructors who are diverse with real-world experience. It's not just about theory but having the tools to make actual change. Would 100% reccomend. Their courses are sensibly priced and are a much better alternative to formal University training which can be stuffy and inconsistent with real-world opportunities and challenges.

I took a three-week UX & AI bootcamp with The UX School. Even though I already have experience in UX design, I still learned a lot. Sergei and the other tutors were very patient and generous in sharing their knowledge, always going into great detail about content design and the design process.

Whether you’re a beginner in UX or an experienced designer who still wants to learn and grow, I would definitely recommend The UX School 😍

I recently completed the UX Design with AI bootcamp and it was an incredible experience. The instructors are exceptionally professional and truly passionate about every single detail of the design process.

We covered the entire end-to-end lifecycle, from deep research to high-fidelity prototyping. A highlight for me was the hands-on exercises focused on integrating AI tools into the design workflow, which showed me how to significantly speed up my process while maintaining quality. I feel much more confident and equipped with modern skills to take on complex, large-scale projects. Highly recommended for any designer looking to stay ahead!"

Participating in this course was a fantastic experience, and I can't recommend it highly enough! As a newcomer to UX/UI design, I found the program extremely enlightening and expertly organized. The material was straightforward, offering me the essential skills to feel assured in this domain.The experience was further enhanced by the exceptional support from the instructors. They were consistently helpful, always eager to answer questions, and offered invaluable feedback throughout. Their mentorship significantly impacted my learning process.Besides gaining knowledge of UX/UI design concepts, I successfully applied these skills and ideas to my business. This course provided me with a fresh outlook and innovative tools to improve my products and elevate the customer experience.Many thanks to the School of UX! :)

I learned so much in a short time and gained so much from brilliant and fun teachers who not only shared their knowledge, skills, best practices and hacks but also shared honest valuable experiences in the real UX world.
