I would like to inform you that I conduct monthly webinars on interesting topics, which take place on the last
Sunday of every month. I invite you to join me for these sessions, where I share practical insights and
knowledge from a real-world perspective, providing an excellent opportunity for learning.
My beginner's workshop spans over two to three months providing you with an immersive learning experience. During this time, you will gain valuable insights and expertise in various aspects of UX design, including research, human psychology, consumer behavior, visualization, user interface design, interaction design, product management, and interview preparation.
This course will teach you to design a visually appealing and functional app that meets user needs.
Gain practical knowledge by working on real-life assignments. Instead of just studying theory,
actively engaging in practical assignments allows you to learn by doing. This hands-on approach
helps you identify potential challenges and opportunities, and learn how to overcome them.
Learning in a group can be a lot of fun, and it also presents an opportunity to connect with others.
This way, you can learn from one another and grow together.

Mindfulness Activities
As a design mentor, I have dedicated myself to help mentees reach their full potential in the field. My passion for design and my years of experience in the industry have given me a deep understanding of the creative process and the ability to navigate the challenges that come with it.
My mentorship includes providing feedback, advice, and support on technical skills and industry knowledge, as well as fostering creativity, critical thinking, and effective communication.
I'm excited to work with you and help you grow as a designer and professional.
I firmly believe in the importance of having a structured process, and this is what I aim
to impart in my sessions with you. By following a well-defined process, you can
systematically approach tasks and achieve better outcomes.
Here, I present a simple yet powerful process that you can
utilize in life and design.
Clearly define the challenge
and delve into the human
context to gain deeper
insights.
Thoroughly research and
observe, then craft a
unique point of view.
Generate both good and
bad ideas, and don't
settle for the obvious. Then,
bring ideas to life with
visible and tangible solutions.
Rinse, repeat, and level up -
continuously gain feedback,
iterate, and improve.
I believe that design is not just about creating beautiful
things, it's about solving problems and making the world
a better place.
That's why I'm committed to sharing my knowledge and
experience with mentees, and provide them with the
guidance they need to achieve their goals and become
the best designers they can be.
I can assist you in achieving and enhancing
mindfulness, which can potentially enhance
mental clarity, alleviate stress, and improve
your overall well-being.
I can assist you in mastering techniques,
processes, and communication skills to excel
in whiteboard challenges during interviews.
I will help you prepare for your interview with
tailored coaching and guidance.
I have taught more than 2000+ students
Manprit is a great instructor & a very knowledgeable person in UX Design domain. I attended his 2 months workshop on UX Design where I learned a lot of things which I felt not only could help in UX Design but also understanding similar concepts in other tech domains. Even the other workshops he organized to teach design concepts were well structured & his approach to teach concepts is very beginner friendly. I felt as if he not only taught me but also mentored me by providing right guidance for moving towards UX Design as a profession.
Manprit Sir is an excellent mentor and person. As a beginner in UX design, I was confused about where to start and had almost zero connections in the design community. Through his workshops, I got good knowledge about fundamentals of design and connected with so many like-minded people. Manprit Sir inspires all his students to keep learning and always striving for more. I have learned so much from him, not just as a designer but as a person.
Manprit Sir is one of the most hard-working, dedicated, and kind individuals I have come across and it's really great to be mentored by someone like him. He has been a vital part of shaping my career in design and has been the most supportive person at all times. Apart from that, he conducts workshops for newbies and people dedicated to UX design after his work hours and also mentors each one. He is a strong contributor to the design community, his experience and nature teach us to be more than just designers.
Manprit Sir is the kindest person I've known. Not only are his workshops incredibly helpful, but he goes above and beyond to help everybody that approaches him. I've never heard him saying 'no' to any student in his workshops and he is extremely patient with his students, he takes his time to understand his students and makes sure each and every doubt is clarified. His empathy and humble attitude is what makes him a great mentor and an UX designer.
found myself fortunate enough when I get a chance to be mentored by manprit sir. whatever I know today about UX is all because of him. His workshops helped me so much to gain much deeper knowledge about UX designing. His way of teaching is quite good even a complex thing can be understood in a simplified way.
It's a pleasure to be mentored by Manprit, who is one of the most dedicated, hardworking, and kind people I've ever met. He has always been immensely supportive of my design career and has played a major role in shaping it. He not only taught me about UX, but he also assisted me in preparing for interviews which works for me. I'm glad I found out about his seminars, and I plan on attending them in the future!
Manprit Sir is an amazing mentor and I feel extremely fortunate to be a part of his Workshops and learn from his expertise in the field. He has been with all of us students throughout and always present for guidance, support, and motivation. When I started out in this field, I got lost in a world of information and courses, But when I came across his workshops, All my doubts are cleared and I am able to move ahead in my career with all the learnings I have received from him. Not only he has taught us about UX but also encourages us about moving ahead in life and gives a lot of life lessons in between! I am glad to have come across his workshops and hope to be a part of it always!
I got to know about Mr. Kalsi through an acquaintance and from there I had literally no fear of learning UI/UX as he is the most approachable mentor that I've ever interacted with. His knowledge is vast (and verifiable) and it surprises me how much he cares about his learner's growth. I have made multiple requests on extending deadlines and he has never been a disappointment. Truly respect his humble and simplified way of approach to every query that he gets on streams! Immense respect to him. Thank you again Manprit for lending a hand. :)
Enroll in my sessions and rest assured that you'll not only gain
knowledge and develop new skills, but also emerge as a more
polished individual and designer. I am dedicated to surpassing
your expectations and ensuring your triumph.
