My experience with Hunter Design School wasn't a great one. In my opinion, their biggest downfall was in management, administration and communication. I studied a 6 month course and I think it may have been one of their first.. the whole thing felt rushed and unorganised, and I don't feel as though my time at the school was productive because we were always skipping from lesson to lesson. Additionally, I never received all of my course work at the beginning of my course. Sections were missing, so when we were going through them in class I had to read of someone else's sheet (only 1 student in the class had the whole booklet). This made it difficult when I was trying to learn and practice class work at home. In fact, it wasn't until the second last lesson that I received the completed booklet. I raised this with my educator...Read More
Hunter design school is probably one of the only schools I know of that is really passionate about students knowing how to originate design and be job ready. I hear so many messages out in the big world of education, study here and get your dream job, be ambitious, study for free and so forth, but I think this school's message of disruption, boldness, pushing boundaries and owning your future is where education should be. I know some people who see this as a negative and that's ok for those who just want to get a certificate, but from what I see, there are some students who really do want to push those boundaries and be the best at what they do and they have definitely achieved that. It's sort of funny that a school, or any business for that matter, who is passionate about being up to date can...Read More
Had a wonderful day completing two workshops at Hunter Design School with Donna. Such a beautiful space to learn and create, would highly recommend for anyone wanting to increase their knowledge of design! Hunters best design space by far !
I am currently studying two courses at Hunter Design School and studied last year with the school as well. I can not recommend this design institution enough! HDS has not only encouraged and inspired me to be every bit imaginative and creative, they have also supported me every single part of the way. The classes I am in are so amazing and my peers and teachers are so accepting and encouraging of everyone's unique individuality. Thanks to HDS I now have clear direction with the path I'm heading down for my future in a creative industry. I have never had any issues with the school and find that all the teachers are approachable and friendly. This is definitely the place to go to study design.
Last year I studied the Diploma of Colour Consulting at HDS and it was the best decision I made. I learnt so much in just one year and the industry contacts and experiences that HDS provided were invaluable to my training and ability to start my own business. Everyone is so welcoming and truly care about you getting the most out of your course. The trainers are extremely knowledgeable and supportive, I couldn't imagine getting the same attention at any other school. I would definitely recommend HDS to anyone wanting to study design. I would love to return to continue studying and build my skills.
