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 and tutor worked on designing the interior of a gym in SketchUp, focusing on adding a door, cold plunge, flooring, and custom wall paneling. The student practiced importing and manipulating objects, applying textures, and creating custom moldings. The session concluded with plans to continue working on the design and address remaining issues in the next session.
3D Warehouse Integration
Object Manipulation: Move and Rotate Tools
Scaling and Resizing Objects
Materials and Textures
Groups vs. Components
Follow Me Tool
Offset Tool
The tutor guided the student through advanced SketchUp modeling techniques, focusing on creating a reception desk with attention to detail and efficient workflow. They practiced organizing elements into groups and components, using shortcuts, and troubleshooting common modeling issues. The student also showcased other design projects and discussed their ongoing learning in architectural visualization.
SketchUp Modeling Fundamentals
Organization and Grouping in SketchUp
Editing and Modifying within Groups/Components
Mirroring and Flipping Geometry in SketchUp
Understanding Components and Instance Properties
The Student and Tutor worked on an architectural project using SketchUp, focusing on importing and cleaning CAD floor plans. They practiced 2D drafting techniques for walls, learned navigation tools, and were introduced to the concepts of groups and components for model organization. The next session will focus on extruding walls into 3D and adding openings.
Creating 3D Walls and Grouping Objects
Importing and Cleaning CAD Files in SketchUp
SketchUp Navigation and Tools
The Student worked on refining a SketchUp model for an architectural project, specifically adjusting staircase dimensions and planning presentation boards. They reviewed examples of effective presentation layouts and discussed incorporating renders and annotations. The follow-up involves the Student completing SketchUp modifications and gathering necessary images for the presentation boards, with sessions scheduled to finalize the boards.
SketchUp Component Editing
Presentation Board Composition
Strategic Use of Software for Architectural Visualization
Iterative Design Workflow
Navigating Hidden Geometry in SketchUp
The Student and Tutor worked on designing a gym in SketchUp, covering 2D planning, wall creation, and basic 3D modeling techniques. The Student imported a floor plan, drew walls with precise dimensions, and added openings for doors and windows. They began incorporating pre-made elements from 3D Warehouse and scheduled a follow-up session to continue the design process.
Navigating with Standard Views
Importing Images as Images (Not Textures)
Accurate Line Drawing and Dimension Input
Offsetting for Wall Thickness
Utilizing the 3D Warehouse
Scaling Components with the Scale Tool
Grouping Objects and Editing Groups
The Tutor and Student worked on refining a SketchUp model and preparing CAD drawings for an upcoming design review. The Tutor received guidance on addressing design flaws, cleaning up section drawings, and integrating the model into a site context. The Tutor will prepare additional views and consider Photoshop edits before the review.
