USABILITY TESTING

Times Tables is an educational app that integrates an adaptive algorithm, optimising learning on individual pace and accuracy to enhance the multiplication skills of young learners. Designed specifically for primary school education in the Netherlands, the application underwent successful piloting in 11 schools across the country, involving over 600 children.

MemoryLab is a scientific company that provides educational institutions with a researched adaptive algorithm software. Building on the need for a new, professional, and innovative branding, I developed a new visual identity, restructured the content, and created both graphic and video assets to support their mission.

PROTOTYPING

At MemoryLab, a central part of my role involved transforming scientific research into intuitive and user-friendly features. For this project, I worked closely with another UX Designer to design solutions focused on the app's core functionality: mastery.

Research

I begin every new project or feature by gathering data. This data can come from various sources: experts, publications, competitive analysis, and most importantly, users.

I ensure the goals are well-defined and that I have sufficient resources to fully understand and work on the problem at hand.

Ideate

I ideate solutions in collaboration with cross-functional teams. I focus on deeply understanding the problem at hand and developing solutions that blend different ideas and perspectives.


I stay informed about market trends, incorporating innovative approaches into the solutions I create. I prioritize solutions based on feasibility, impact, and alignment with business goals, always ensuring that users’ needs remain uncompromised.

Design

I create low- and high-fidelity designs in Figma, including interactive prototypes. I develop design systems and brand guidelines, whether for new brand identities or to align with existing ones. I ensure ideas have a strong aesthetic appeal while adhering to heuristic design principles and maintaining usability.

Test

I test my ideas both before implementation and after the design has been prototyped. I craft prompts for user interviews to ensure new features are intuitive and easy for users to grasp. Depending on the project’s timeline and scope, I use a combination of qualitative and quantitative research methods.
