Squarespace Design Course Student

Initially when looking at this course. I thought ooh it would be soo cool to be able to learn how to make a website for my photography. At the time I was looking into becoming a wedding photographer but was unsure if I wanted to take that route. The pandemic happened and since we were all stuck at home and I wanted to learn a new skill. I took the plunge and honestly, after finishing this course, I can say it was worth it. I really learned a lot about my own learning process and what is potentially stopping me.

If for some reason you stop and don't feel like you can do it, the support system has been built with groups that help you stay accountable. The TA's and classmates are always there to support you. Seeing those other classmates finish the course is very motivating.

The resources that are available in terms of the extra content are included with the Q&A's, code snippet, [Cookie] rewards and expansive knowledge from the TA's. It really helps with being an all-around website designer. This is a long learning journey, but it helps to know which direction to look.

I started this course looking to help supplement my photography career but I think I am going to make website design my career and use my photography to supplement it.

Looking forward to seeing what comes next.
