I am an alumni of DIC from the batch of 2023. My time at Design India Collective was filled with valuable art education, self-growth, and deeper understanding. This workshop helped me build a strong portfolio and prepare for exams, making the college admission process much easier while also helping me find a clearer path for their future. Nitin Sir has created such a wonderful and positive environment for students, where we had open discussions about our work, participated in various workshops, and went on educational trips. It isn’t just a workshop, it’s a mentorship-driven journey that truly helps you pave the right path for your future. I found good friends, a good college, and left DIC with confident mindset. It has been three years since the completion of the workshop, and I am still in touch with Nitin Sir. I often visit DIC and continue to turn to him for guidance whenever I need clarity in my work. I am grateful to be a part of DIC and the journey it has given me!!Posted on Google Zainab TambawallaMarch 29, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Passionate and thorough in their understanding of design. Nitin is a genuine teacher who works wholeheartedly towards the students interest, builds on their strength and is committed to the best for each student.Posted on Google Avni ThakkarMarch 27, 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As parents, we are very happy and grateful for the support and guidance provided by Nitin Sir at DIC. Our child passed out from the coaching three years ago, but the skills, confidence, and creative thinking she developed there continue to help her even today. During her time at DIC, we saw a significant improvement in her drawing skills, design thinking, and problem-solving abilities. Nitin Sir always motivates students and patiently guides them to explore their creativity and think independently. The hands-on learning experience and personal attention given to every student make a big difference. We truly appreciate his dedication and would highly recommend DIC to parents whose children are interested in pursuing a career in the design field.
