Class overview
As a SketchUp, Architecture, and AutoCAD tutor, I can teach students of all levels - from school to college to adult/professional learners. My teaching methodology includes model making, technical skills development, concept building, design thinking, and keeping the sessions engaging. I focus on preparing students for a successful career in architecture by helping them build a strong portfolio of projects. With tailored strategies, I assist students in grasping design principles and provide them with the opportunity to work on their own designs. Through personalized design projects that cater to their architectural interests, I guide students towards achieving their educational and professional goals.
