Domestika - Online courses 4+

I absolutely love 🥰 learning new things. I have so many fantastic hobbies and this is like a dream come true having affordable classes in the comfort of my own home!!
I have always wanted to learn needle painting embroidery and thanks to this fantastic learning platform I am learning from the most amazing artists!
I am also learning art and design skills from amazing university tutors on this platform from different countries around the world! I would never have had the ability to learn from them any other way!
I am finding the platform ok to manage. I find having tutors who can’t speak in English ok to learn from if the class I am taking has audio in English, there are subtitles but I learn better by being able to listen. I don’t know if all the classes has English speakers who translate, so I look at the availability before I purchase a class.
The only thing I was unhappy about was each time I bought a class, the price for classes would increase. As I was purchasing so many I decided to buy their monthly subscription and pay for any additional classes not covered by the subscription. So far the subscription is working well for me because I do several classes per month and I can also pay for several classes at a time if I want to.
The classes are very professionally made, and seeing the demonstrations are very clear to understand with no prior experience.
Looking forward to learning more new and exciting art/craft/design courses.

I've purchased many courses from Domestika over the last 4 years. The quality of the teaching is excellent. Each tutor has their own style which makes the lessons interesting and encourages you to try out each technique. Unlike some online courses the tutors, they are not afraid to share their knowledge and the tips given are really useful.
The courses I've purchased are ones that have enabled me to extend my knowledge of the crafts that I have been trained in.
If you are looking for quality education that is provided in short easy to digest lessons in a variety of languages with English subtitles where required.
Domestika is the learning platform that you should enroll in. Becoming a member of the Domestika Plus is worth while, as you get a free credit each month to get a course. You can purchase additional credits at very competitive prices, which makes getting other courses at very good rates well below the full cost.

The content is great, but the experience on the app is not as good as it could be. This is for two main reasons:
1) disappearing videos - Several times I’ve had downloaded video content delete itself, sometimes while I am away from WiFi which is very annoying as it means I cannot access content which I had previously downloaded onto my device. This is especially annoying as the videos can only be downloaded at high quality which takes a long time.
2) missing functionality and content.
While watching / working through a course on my iPad there are buttons in the UI that simply don’t work (for example the “mark unit as finished” button). There’s even actual *content* that is inaccessible, even though it is available via the browser (eg the “additional resources” under each unit) which means it’s not possible to access reference images or other materials essential for the course.
All in all, it’s a good app if you want to watch videos but not for anything else.
