Magdalena A.
Learning & Instructional Designer | Training That Works & Engages
ENGAGING LEARNING EXPERIENCES THAT INSPIRE REAL CHANGE Hi, I’m Magdalena, a Learning & Instructional Designer helping experts and organisations turn knowledge into learning experiances that actually change behaviour. Most of my clients don’t come to me saying “I need an eLearning.” They come with challenges like: “We have great expertise, but our course feels overwhelming or boring.” “Our training exists, but people don’t engage, and nothing really changes.” “We need to modernise our learning content without losing depth or credibility.” That’s where I come in. I work at the intersection of learning strategy, psychology, and design. My focus goes beyond delivering content: I help solve learning-related business problems by improving engagement, clarifying complex topics, and designing learning experiences that learners actually apply in their day-to-day work. HOW I WORK I start by understanding your goals, your learners, and the behaviors you want to change. From there, I propose solutions that address both your business objectives and your learners’ needs and resources, and I design learning experiences that are: • Human-centered and engaging • Visually clean, modern, and accessible • Strategically structured for clarity and retention • Designed for real-world application I don’t simply “build what’s asked.” I think with you, challenge assumptions when needed, and help you make informed decisions about format, structure, and scope. WHAT I HELP WITH Depending on your needs, I can support you with: - Learning strategy & course structure - Redesining or modernising existing courses - Interactive eLearning (Storyline, Rise, LMS-based courses) - Learning videos, microlearning, and supporting materials - Workbooks, guides and learning assets - Quality assurance and content clarity - Measuring success I work with both knowledge-based entrepreneurs who want to turn expertise into polished learning products, and organizations that need training which actually influences behavior and performance. ABOUT AI & TOOLS I use modern tools (including AI) responsibly and transparently, as support, never as a replacement for human expertise. All learning design, instructional decisions, and creative direction are human-led, research-based, and aligned with your goals. We always agree upfront how tools are used. I work with tools such as Articulate Storyline, Articulate Rise, Canva, Vyond, Elevenlabs, Grammarly, generative AI tools (e.g. Chat GPT) as well as Learning Management Systems (e.g. Moodle, LearnDash) to create human-centred, beautifully crafted learning experiences that drive engagement, build skills, and transform behaviour. LOOKING FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU! You'll enjoy working with me if you're looking for: - A thoughtful partner, not just execution - Clear communication and transparency - Clean design, creative mindset, strong structure, and learner-first thinking If that sounds like what you need, I'd be happy to discuss your project!
