Design Teacher

Master everyone’s favorite design tool

Advanced Figma is a 4-week course for going beyond the basics—master auto layout, components, and variables to build scalable, responsive UI systems.

A cohort-based experience—learn in a small group, guided by Nevan through practical live sessions.

Hands-on content—learn how Figma’s core systems work together through clear guides, exercises, and applied projects.

Expect to spend ~4–6 hours per week building responsive layouts, reusable components, and a flexible design system you can apply to real work.
