What students say about us

“I didn’t expect to learn so much in just 3 months. It’s been an incredible experience meeting all the patrons and learning from their years in the industry – that’s certainly been the highlight of the course for me. I loved the apparel and packaging project – seeing your design on an object really brings the work to life and you feel as though you’re working in a real studio environment. Doing the course has completely changed my life and I am so much happier now that I’ve changed my career. I am doing a role much better suited to my strengths and I wake up every day and I look forward to going to work.”

Eshé BrownGraphic Designer, Pegasus, Brighton, UK

“The course is great for people changing careers or moving sideways and wanting to develop their portfolio. Having practising designers on the course is inspiring and purposeful. The tutors enthusiasm, friendliness and openness have inspired me. The diverse range of projects have been inspiring and projects clearly broken down, which meant that you felt comfortable and prepared for tackling the brief. Bill and the team have been amazing and are there to support you even after the course, the technical part is important, but this course will teach you how to integrate into the design industry! This team know how to retrain you!”

Hannah FisherGraphic Designer, Roche, UK

“I am so glad that I took the decision to enrol. This intense and industry focused course really does prepare you for the working world as a graphic designer. The environment is relaxed and creative and Bill works with each individual to bring out the best in everyone. It is amazing how much is achieved in just 3 month.The interviews I attended, everyone was impressed with the physical portfolio that I presented, commenting that most students only have a digital version. I recently took on a Design and Marketing role for a company based in London I’m busy re branding and creating new marketing material. It is challenging and rewarding.”

Jo KilgourDesign and Marketing Manager, Interactive Space, London, UK

“Being at the School was an intense whirlwind of creative energy in a supportive environment. The three months at the school interacting with each new professional coming from the real-world industry was invigorating and stimulating in many ways. The other students on the course came from such diverse backgrounds and experiences, I feel the connections we made with each other were incredibly special.This course has opened many doors for me, and the Strohacker School was the initial push. If you have a creative itch you’re wanting to explore, don’t know where or how to start, I highly recommend the Strohacker Design School.”

Salomé Guruli MA Branding/Art direction, Virginia Commonwealth University, USA

“Strohacker Design school has made me ready to approach any design brief with the confidence to sell my abilities. Based in a realistic studio environment, I learned a lot in a small amount of time. A few to mention include typography, logo design, branding, layout and editorial design. Picking up loads of indispensable tips and tricks throughout the journey from Bill and all the other tutors.”

Matt WaiteFreelance Graphic Designer, Bognor Regis, UK

“At Strohacker Design School I acquired the skills to accurately approach and solve industry level design projects, while strengthening my ability to think creatively. Since every one of the projects is taught by a different expert in the design industry, I finished the course feeling confident about entering the industry and really thriving there.”
