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.

Architecture concepts taught by Riya
The Student practiced creating a floor plan in AutoCAD based on provided dimensions, focusing on walls, doors, and room layouts. The session covered interpreting dimensions, using specific tools, and correcting errors in the drawing. The student was assigned to continue practicing the floor plan, add doors and furniture, and search for more practice plans.
Text Height Adjustment
Importance of Internal vs. External Dimensions
The Extend Command (EX)
Understanding Polyline (PL)
Align Tool Functionality
Dynamic Components
Dimensioning with DIMLINEAR (DLI)
The Student practiced using SketchUp to create a 3D model from a 2D plan, focusing on walls, openings, and basic 3D manipulation. They learned about the push/pull tool, grouping, and importing from the 3D Warehouse. The Student was assigned to continue working on the model and try importing a window from the 3D Warehouse for the next session.
Utilizing the 3D Warehouse
SketchUp Go Interface and Navigation
2D Drawing Fundamentals in 3D Space
Offsetting Surfaces for Wall Thickness
Push/Pull for 3D Extrusion
Grouping and Component Creation
Scaling and Rotating 3D Warehouse Models
The Student practiced editing walls and openings in a SketchUp model based on client feedback, incorporating new wall placements and door locations. They learned how to correct wall issues and work within groups effectively. The student will present the updated model to the clients, focusing on the new layout.
Grouping in SketchUp
Drawing Lines 'On Face'
Correcting Reverse Faces
Push/Pull with Control Key
Floor Creation and Thickness
Wall Editing Techniques
The student presented their Italian restaurant design project to the tutor. They discussed the design concept, material choices, floor plan, and bar elevation, drawing inspiration from Italian design and architecture. The student plans to add a bartender figure to the bar elevation rendering based on the tutor's suggestion.
Floor Plans
Interior Perspective Renderings
Mood Boards
Importance of Research in Design
Concept Presentation
Compression and Expansion (Spatial Design)
The Student and Tutor worked on refining SketchUp modeling skills, focusing on editing techniques, visual presentation for clients, and workflow optimization. The Student practiced manipulating groups and components, adjusting visual styles, and exporting models. Future sessions may involve more direct, collaborative modeling to reinforce proper grouping and component creation.
Groups vs. Components in SketchUp
Paste in Place
Exploding Groups and Components
Tagging Dimensions
Efficiently Cutting Geometry
Exporting PDFs with High Resolution
SketchUp Styles and Visual Presentation
The Student presented their work on a floor plan, perspective rendering, and mood board for an interior design project. The Tutor provided feedback on the perspective rendering, suggesting the addition of shadows to enhance realism. The Student also shared their innovative method of using AI to generate furniture views for the floor plan. They discussed future plans to visit family, and the Student was congratulated on their UCLA architecture feature.
