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.

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 concepts taught by Vinkal
WBLOCK (Write Block)
Layers and Line Types in AutoCAD
External References (XREF) and Overlays
The class covered the core AutoCAD concepts of layers and blocks, demonstrating their creation and application. Students practiced creating layers, applying them to drawings, and understanding the difference between grouping and blocking objects. The session also included a review of dimensioning tools and unit settings for technical drawings.
Blocks in AutoCAD
Dimensioning Styles and Units
Extend Command
Layers in AutoCAD
The student practiced using AutoCAD commands to create detailed technical drawings, focusing on precise line placement, dimensioning, and layer management. They learned to draw geometric shapes, apply various dimension types, and correctly format their drawings, including adding a title block. The session aimed to reinforce practical skills in AutoCAD for technical illustration.
Creating and Manipulating Geometric Shapes
Dimensioning Techniques and Precision
Dynamic Input and Command Line Entry
Layers and Object Properties
The session covered advanced SketchUp techniques for architectural modeling, focusing on time-saving extensions for geometry creation and efficient material management. The student practiced using the 'Face Up' and 'Extrude' extensions, and strategies for organizing models and managing file performance were discussed for future application.
