About your tutor
I am an interior design professional with 1.5 years of industry experience and 1 year of teaching, specializing in AutoCAD, SketchUp, and Enscape rendering. I hold a Master’s in Interior Design from the UK and a Bachelor’s from India. I’ve worked on residential and commercial projects, creating detailed drawings and 3D models, and now teach students to do the same. My teaching focuses on real-world application, project-based learning, and software proficiency, helping learners build strong portfolios and practical skills for the interior design industry. I design lessons that blend creativity with precision and encourage students to visualize spaces with clarity, purpose, and technical accuracy.
Mastery of CAD software in 4 weeks
90% of students feel confident using AutoCAD, Rhino, and Revit.
Collaborative design learning
85% of students benefit from group design exercises.
Clear step-by-step instructions
Students appreciate simple explanations of complex software.
Class overview
My teaching methodology combines hands-on learning with real-world project scenarios. I focus on step-by-step guidance in AutoCAD, SketchUp, and Enscape, helping students understand both the tools and their design applications. Lessons emphasize clean modeling, accurate drafting, and effective visual presentation. I encourage project-based learning, creativity, and problem-solving, while providing regular feedback and support. By integrating professional standards and practical tasks, I help students develop confidence, technical skills, and portfolio-ready work aligned with industry expectations. I also incorporate design logic and spatial thinking to prepare students for real design challenges.

Architecture concept taught by Vinkal
Vinkal instructed Zachary on how to import a scanned PDF survey into AutoCAD by converting it to a DWG file for use in SketchUp. Zachary practiced tracing over the survey lines with polylines, learning about object snapping, ortho mode, and correcting mistakes. Zachary's homework is to finish tracing the plan, including wall thickness, in AutoCAD, and Vinkal will prepare the AutoCAD file for SketchUp import for their next session.

Vinkal tutored Edaet in an AutoCAD session, covering essential commands and techniques for efficient drawing practices. They reviewed basic setup, dimensioning, layers, scaling, and file maintenance commands like "purge" and "overkill." Vinkal also introduced advanced commands such as "image clipping," "mirror," "fillet," and "polyline," emphasizing closed boundaries for hatching and frequent saving. Edaet needs to resolve her AutoCAD access issues before their next session on July 2nd.

Vinkal is tutoring Jakob on AutoCAD for his architectural assignments. They cover topics like fixing AutoCAD issues, annotating survey plans with bearings and distances, creating title blocks and scale bars, and improving floor plans by adding doors, windows, and considering vastu principles. Vinkal also teaches Jakob efficient CAD techniques, including using "explode," "join," "offset (multiple)," "extrim," and "match property" commands, as well as best practices for wall construction, tiling, flooring, and plumbing considerations. They plan to review Jakob's work before submission.

Vinkal assisted Jakob with his CAD assignment, focusing on resolving scaling and layering issues in Civil 3D. They covered techniques for converting images to DWG, managing layers, scaling drawings, and adding architectural elements like walls and doors. Vinkal will share a template file with blocks, and they scheduled another session for Sunday to continue working on the assignment.

Vinkal Joshi tutored Marcus Lee on using Rhino to modify a 3D ring model, specifically removing existing engravings. Marcus practiced using commands like 'extract surface', 'untrim', and 'cap' to smooth the ring's surface. Marcus will send Vinkal a new file containing a logo to engrave in the next session.
