1:1 Architecture Tutorial

$250.00

Expert feedback on your architecture project from a Chartered Architect and former University Lecturer.

Sometimes you don’t need another YouTube tutorial, another Pinterest board or another night staring at your drawings.

You need someone experienced to look at your work with you and help you figure out what to do next.

My 1:1 Architecture Tutorials are private online sessions designed to give you focused, practical feedback on the work you’re doing right now.

Bring your drawings, plans, sketches, models, presentation boards or even a half-developed idea, and we’ll work through it together - just like we would in a university tutorial.

With over 15 years of experience teaching architecture and design students, I’ve helped thousands of students develop their ideas, improve their drawings and communicate their projects more clearly.

You don’t need to have everything figured out before we meet.

That’s the point of the tutorial.

Is This Right for You?

A 1:1 tutorial is ideal if you’re:

  • Studying Architecture, Interior Design or a related creative course

  • Stuck on a current design project

  • Unsure how to develop your idea

  • Struggling to translate your ideas into drawings

  • Trying to understand or respond to tutor feedback

  • Preparing for a crit, review or submission

  • Unsure what drawings you actually need

  • Struggling with plans, sections, elevations or perspective

  • Worried that your presentation isn’t communicating your project clearly

  • Looking for a second opinion before you submit your work

You don’t need a finished project.

Bring what you have, tell me where you’re stuck, and we’ll start there.

What We Can Work On

Every tutorial is completely tailored to your project and what you need help with.

We might look at:

  • Design development

  • Plans, sections and elevations

  • Perspective drawing

  • Architectural sketching

  • Drawing composition and line weight

  • Presentation drawings

  • Layout and visual communication

  • Developing a design concept

  • Communicating your ideas more clearly

  • Responding to tutor or crit feedback

  • Preparing for an upcoming review or submission

  • Deciding what to work on next

This isn’t about me redesigning your project for you.

It’s about helping you see your project more clearly, ask better questions and make stronger design decisions yourself.

What You’ll Leave With

After your tutorial, you should have:

  • Clear, practical feedback on your work

  • A better understanding of what is and isn’t working

  • Specific ideas for how to develop your project

  • Priorities for what to work on next

  • Greater confidence in the decisions you’re making

Most importantly, I want you to finish the session knowing: “Right. I know what I need to do now.”

How It Works

It doesn’t need to be polished or finished.

3. Meet online
We’ll spend 60 minutes together reviewing your project, talking through where you’re stuck and working out your next steps.

4. Get back to your project
You’ll leave with clear priorities and practical actions you can start working on straight away.

A Note Before Booking

These sessions are designed to help you learn, improve and think like a designer.

I won’t complete coursework or projects for you. Instead, I’ll challenge your thinking, provide honest feedback, and help you develop the skills and confidence to produce your own best work.

Sessions are typically scheduled within one week of booking.

As mentoring is a personalised service, refunds are not available once a session has taken place.

If you have any questions before booking, I’d be happy to help.
