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
In a CAD training session on July 23, 2025, Vinkal mentors Edaet on architectural drafting in AutoCAD. They cover topics like creating sections, using commands and shortcuts, detailing elements (walls, windows, ceilings), and maintaining accuracy. Vinkal emphasizes systematic approaches, layer management, and efficient techniques. The conversation also extends to career advice for Edaet's new job, discussing the architectural profession's challenges, licensing, job market realities, and the importance of communication and site management skills.

Vinkal is mentoring Edaet on AutoCAD, covering topics like line division, level difference symbols, scaling imported drawings, and creating professional printed sheets using layouts. Vinkal emphasizes precise detailing, file organization, and best practices for managing client projects, including contracts and revision control. Edaet is preparing for an internship and learning to create professional-quality drawings.

Splitting Lines in AutoCAD
Vinkal tutored Edaet on AutoCAD, focusing on architectural drafting techniques. They covered scaling, hatching, layer management, and creating window sections. Vinkal assigned homework involving creating a living room plan with specific furniture elements to practice scaling and layering, and will send Edaet a template file with various architectural elements. They scheduled the next session for Sunday, pending time confirmation from Edaet.

Vinkal Joshi tutored Zachary Gray on AutoCAD and SketchUp, focusing on scaling and dimensioning drawings for architectural projects. They worked through file conversion issues, practiced using the SC command for accurate scaling in AutoCAD, and prepared files for import into SketchUp. Zachary was assigned homework to import the scaled drawing into SketchUp and create a basic 3D model using push and pull techniques, with a follow-up session planned for the next week.

AutoCAD File Conversion
Vinkal guided Zachary through the process of converting a scanned PDF survey into a usable DWG file for SketchUp, covering file conversion techniques and basic AutoCAD commands for tracing and preparing the survey. Zachary practiced using polylines and object snapping in AutoCAD. Zachary was assigned homework to complete tracing the survey plan in AutoCAD, and Vinkal will prepare the file for import into SketchUp for their next session on Friday.

Converting Image to DWG
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.
