Class overview
I offer private tutoring lessons in Autocad,Sketchup-Vray,Photoshop and English speaking,reading and writing skills to school and university students.My teaching tactics are completely dependent on the needs of the students. Each student's learning requirements are unique. In my lessons, I try to combine concepts with hands-on design projects. In addition, I enjoy listening to student questions and clarifying them. I aim to keep students as engaged in class discussions as possible. I also help students with their homework, tasks, and test preparation.

Architecture concepts taught by SOWMIYA
The student practiced various AutoCAD commands, focusing on geometric creation, object manipulation, and data transfer between drawings. They learned about blocks, groups, precise positioning, hatching, dimension styling, and plotting to PDF, with plans to continue learning in the next session.
Plotting and Publishing to PDF
Match Properties
Copying Objects Between Drawings
Edit Block in Place
Blocks vs. Groups
The Tutor and Student worked on advanced AutoCAD commands for site planning, including creating property lines, pathways, and driveways. They practiced using hatch patterns, calculating areas, and utilizing the 'align' command for object placement. The session concluded with a demonstration of plot and print functionalities to create PDF documents.
Site Plans and Layers
Hatching Techniques in AutoCAD
Area Calculation and Utility Commands
Plotting and Aligning Objects
The Tutor provided instruction on various AutoCAD commands, including "Join," "Reference Edit," "Group," "Select Similar," "Match Properties," and "Mid Between Two Points." The student practiced copying objects between drawings and learned about version compatibility using "Save As." The next class was scheduled for Thursday.
Reference Edit (Edit Block in Place)
Join Command
Copying Between Drawings
Group vs. Block
Select Similar & Match Properties
Save As - Version Control
The student practiced converting a single-line architectural drawing into a double-line plan using AutoCAD by applying offset commands for wall thickness and using trim and fillet tools for cleanup. The session also began instruction on creating door openings, with a plan to review standard door dimensions in the next class.
Double Line Walls in AutoCAD
Door Opening Creation
AutoCAD Line Weight and Display
The class covered the practical application of creating double-line architectural plans in AutoCAD, focusing on wall thickness, command usage for drafting, and the placement of doors and windows. The student practiced using tools like offset, fillet, extend, and trim, and learned about block insertion for doors and windows, including concepts like cross-ventilation and sill height.
Double Line Plans vs. Single Line Plans
Door and Window Placement Guidelines
Understanding Blocks in CAD Software
Essential Drafting Commands for Double Line Plans
Wall Thickness Standards in Double Line Plans
The Tutor guided the Student through the process of setting up layers and drawing architectural elements like walls, doors, and windows in AutoCAD. They practiced using commands for line drawing, dimensioning, and refining shapes, and discussed the proper organization of drawing components using layers and text.
