UI/UX Design Workshop
Madan Bhandari Memorial College
This was my first experience mentoring students through a structured seven-day UI/UX Design Workshop. Over the course of the sessions, participants explored the fundamentals of UI/UX, design thinking, user-centered design, and modern design practices using Figma.
Captured Moments & Highlights
The Experience
This seven-day workshop was my first experience working directly with students as a mentor.
The sessions introduced participants to the foundations of UI/UX design, design thinking, user-centered design principles, and modern design practices using Figma.
What made the experience particularly rewarding was seeing participants gradually become more comfortable with design concepts, asking questions, exploring ideas, and beginning to think about how digital experiences should be designed around real users.
Learning Together
The workshop was not only about teaching.
As a mentor, I also learned from the participants—their questions, different ways of approaching problems, and their curiosity pushed me to think more clearly about how I explain technical and design concepts.
This experience helped me understand that mentoring is not simply about knowing something. It is also about communicating it in a way that allows someone else to understand and apply it.

What I Took Away
This experience gave me my first real opportunity to mentor students and helped me become more confident in communicating ideas, guiding others, and working as part of a team to deliver a multi-day technical workshop.
It also showed me that some of the most rewarding parts of technology happen outside of writing code—when knowledge is shared and other people begin building with it.
