Ashikul Islam — UI/UX Design Trainer & Coach
UI/UXMENTOR
For more than eight years I have designed products, mentored designers and trained teams. Now I help you skip the guesswork and design with confidence — from your first wireframe to a portfolio that gets you hired.
Design on
From stuck to shipped.
Most designers do not lack talent — they lack honest feedback and a clear next step. In 1:1 sessions we review your real work, fix what holds it back and plan the skills, projects and portfolio pieces that move your career forward.
Whether you are switching into UX, preparing for a senior role or leading your first design team, every session ends with something concrete you can use the next day.
11:1 MENTORSHIP
- Portfolio & case-study reviews
- Career plan for juniors to leads
- Interview and design-challenge prep
Talks that make teams rethink design.
On stage I share what I have learned shipping real products — the wins, the mistakes and the simple habits that separate good interfaces from great ones.
My talks are practical, visual and interactive, so people leave with ideas they can try in their very next sprint.
- 01Design that people actually use
- 02Why your users don’t read (and what to do)
- 03Design systems without the drama
- 04From designer to design leader
Workshops people remember.
Hands-on training for designers, developers and product teams — every session is built around real projects, not slides.
UX research lab
Interviews, usability tests and turning findings into clear product decisions.
Design sprint
Five focused days from a business problem to a tested prototype.
Portfolio clinic
Turn your projects into case studies that hiring managers remember.
DESIGN TALKSDesign Talks
Honest conversations with designers, founders and product leaders about the decisions behind products we use every day.
