Is teaching ui/ux design promising?

Question

IT education

Good afternoon. I need help. I've been braking for the second week. I'm at a crossroads. And I want and prick.
What's the matter - for more than 6 years I've been doing front end - site layout. Nothing complicated - html, css, cms systems. Everything.
I want to switch to ui/ux.
Now I'm thinking of taking a course. And I hesitate. What do you think - to improve your position in the front or move into interface design?
Are interface designers in demand now? The salary doesn't make sense. I believe that if a person works poorly, then he cannot rise above 30 thousand here and there. If you work cool, and are a master of your craft, then in design you can easily exceed 150 if you wish.
Well, I understand the average salary, the front has more, but I am a person more prone to humanitarian knowledge.
And I think that I could develop well in this area.
It scares me to quit like this ..
Or will the front + ui / ux bundle give an advantage in the future?
I am 35 years old. I have to make a choice now. I hesitate, but I understand that a lot depends on the decision that I will make now, in the future.

Answer 1

Interface designers are not as in demand as front-end developers.
Frontmen can easily do without designers, use ready-made UI libraries, and it’s rarely when it comes to UX, because this is a long and painstaking work and not all companies can afford it financially.
If you want money, it's better to level up to 150-200k front. But you can always take a UX course and try your hand at it if you're passionate about it.

Answer 2

humanitarian knowledge

I want to switch to ui/ux.

There's a conflict here.

Answer 3

Are interface designers in demand now?

Yes

Now I'm thinking of taking a course

Why when there is a torrent, and in the evenings you can see if it's yours or not.

It scares me to leave it like this..

Why quit when you can combine. For 3 hours in the evening, throughout the year - this is a worthy investment in your future (figures are arbitrary)

I am 35 years old

Good age, you are not 70 years old. You have at least another 30 years left to become a good Ui\Ux Engineer

Answer 4

While there is an opportunity, learn everything that you like and that is at least somehow connected with your work. And brains develop, and as a result, this has a positive effect on professional activity.
Regarding courses:
There is indeed a lot of information in open sources, but normal courses allow you to save the most valuable thing - time.
Start with free sources: the same YouTube, forums. When the head begins to boil, questions begin to accumulate - sign up for courses.
