Teaching
One of my passions is teaching UX/UI Design. In these last years, I have been teaching in Portugal and for the USA. In my classes, I instruct students on these fields:
_ User Research
_ Information Architecture
_ Agile (Scrum)
_ Low- and Hi-Fidelity Wireframes
_ Visual Design
_ Interactive Prototyping
_ Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD and Invision
_ Usability Testing
Video Tutorials
I released a couple of tutorial videos explaining different UX and UI subjects to help users to understand better this field. These videos were published on my LinkedIn page and I had a good amount of engagement with my audience.
In this video I’m showing 7 characteristics a digital product must have to be outstanding. These are important tips when you want to have the best product when compared with your competitors.
Social Media Content
Besides the videos I created, I decided to create some static content for my social media accounts. The goal was the same as for the videos, which was to help users to understand better this amazing field.
I created different types of posts to make my content more dynamic. Here’re some subjects I talked about: how to create personas, the best websites to download illustrations, how to design user-friendly forms, how to do usability testing, etc.
Testimonials
Andreas Brücker
Founder and Creative Director,
TJPA – Creative Agency
João is a great graphic and UI/UX designer, very structured, reliable, and forward-thinking! I worked with him on many projects and did not only value his creative talents but also his open and friendly personality. He is a very balanced person and I was particularly impressed not only by his outstanding design work but also by his organizational skills. This combination is hard to find and very valuable – I can highly recommend working with João.

I’ve been working with João for a year and a half. João has always shown a very professional attitude, always delivering their work just on time. He’s very creative and have the ability to highlight your marketing messages in a very appeal way. What’s the more important is that Joao ask the right questions and criticize briefings in a very positive way helping you to think better and have better outcomes. Definitely a major help for businesses.
Tiago Dias
Head of Strategy and Innovation,
Pepper – Brand Taste
João Pinheiro was recommended to me (and Pepper – Brand Taste) when we were in the early stages of designing our new institutional website, which had the primary objective of showcasing our portfolio. I already had heard good things about João’s work as a trainer (@FLAG) and an UX/UI designer at his former agency, but no one had told me how patient and understanding João was. In the end, the amount of detail in the project presented was proof that João goes above and beyond.
Miguel Vilhena
Certified Outsystems Developer,
SQUAD IT Portugal
João is the embodied definition of a sharp creative force of nature in a cool creative suit. I was lucky enough to have him as a teacher (@FLAG), and as such he always challenged me to think further, to not conform, to demand and implement a more organised and cohesive process in my daily chaotic design environment. Whether you are looking for a partner that will help you create inspiring brand experiences, or you are looking for a teacher to help you reach the next level of design mastery, look no further! João is that good!
