About Me
My name is Mamadou and I am a student of architecture, landscape architecture and urban planning. During my training, I was able to do many internships and work in many architecture and urban planning firms, but also in landscape architecture, which gave me a perfect mastery of SketchUp software to be able to claim to teach it.
In this course, we will detail each tool of the SketchUp software and apply it in very specific situations in relation to your field (architecture, urban planning, landscape architecture, civil engineering, interior design, etc.) to allow you to be completely autonomous and contextual in use.
Education
Master in Landscape Architecture

A graduate in Landscape Architecture from the Casablanca School of Architecture and Landscape, I also completed a course in Architecture and Urban Planning in Dakar. These courses, combined with my experience in agencies and on construction sites, have allowed me to develop solid skills in 2D/3D drawing, design, realistic renderings and technical monitoring.
Experience / Qualifications
I am fluent in AutoCAD, SketchUp, Lumion, Photoshop, Artlantis, as well as video rendering and presentation tools. I also have some knowledge of reinforced concrete, measurements and cost estimates, and I am motivated to learn more about local standards and the working methods specific to your agency.

Teaching Methodology in Interior Design:

-Teaching Techniques and Methods: I use a structured and personalized approach to foster creativity and understanding of key concepts. Lessons include hands-on projects in space design, materials, layouts, and ambiance, with case studies to strengthen analytical and creative skills. Teaching techniques also incorporate software use, such as Homestyler, Revit, SketchUp, AutoCAD, Lumion, and Adobe Suite.

-Typical Course Structure: Each class begins with a discussion to assess the student’s expectations. We then delve into the topic of the day, covering theoretical concepts, a practical exercise, and a critical analysis, followed by additional resources for further study.

-What Sets Me Apart as an Instructor: My international experience offers a broad perspective on design trends. I emphasize creativity while providing a solid foundation and a supportive, yet rigorous teaching style.

-Target Audience: My courses are designed for high school students, early university students in architecture or design, and anyone looking to discover or deepen their understanding of interior design.

Learn to draw like an architect. Whether you're preparing for an entrance exam, building an application portfolio, or simply want your sketches to look like they belong in a studio, I'll get you there.

I'm Aliya. I have an architecture degree and nine years of teaching experience — over 1,385 lessons with students in more than 20 countries, from complete beginners to applicants who went on to get accepted.

What we cover:

Freehand drawing — the foundation every admissions committee looks for
Linear and one-, two- and three-point perspective
Constructing buildings and interiors from imagination, not just from reference
Light, shadow and tonal work that gives drawings depth
Rendering in pencil, ink, marker and watercolour
Entourage — trees, figures, cars, the details that make a sketch feel alive
Composition and page layout for portfolio presentation
Fast sketching under exam conditions

Struggling with your design project, portfolio, or next career step? Let’s work through it together!
I’m a practising Interior Designer with a RIBA Part 2 architectural background, experience in leading UK design practices, and previous university-level teaching experience.

Whether you’re preparing for university, currently studying, or starting your design career, I offer personalised one-to-one guidance in:

University Applications: Creative portfolio development and preparation.

Design Tutoring: Concept development, critical thinking, space planning, Revit, technical drawings and visualisation.

Career Mentoring: Professional portfolios, CV development and interview preparation.

My approach is simple: I don’t just teach software or tell you what to do. I help you think creatively, develop confidence and discover your own design direction.

Let’s turn your ideas into something you’re proud of!

I offer personalized online 1:1 tutoring for anyone who wants to create a strong, original and professionally presented architecture portfolio.

For high school students applying to architecture school, I guide the complete development of an admission portfolio—from discovering personal interests and generating creative project ideas to observational drawing, conceptual thinking, experimentation, model-making and final page design. No previous architectural experience is required. Together, we build a portfolio that demonstrates curiosity, imagination, creative potential and an authentic personal voice.

For architecture students applying to a Master’s degree, the tutoring focuses on presenting a higher level of intellectual and creative thinking. We develop a clear portfolio narrative while strengthening research, analysis, conceptual development, transdisciplinary connections, architectural experimentation and visual communication. The portfolio is carefully adapted to the character and expectations of the selected universities.

For graduates and professionals seeking architectural employment, I help create a focused professional portfolio that can attract the attention of leading architecture firms. We select and improve the strongest projects, clarify your individual and team contributions, and present your technical abilities through plans, sections, construction details, diagrams, models and visualizations. We also work on personal branding, graphic consistency, storytelling and the immediate visual impact of the portfolio, helping you communicate your value quickly and improve your chances of securing an interview and being hired.

Every student receives a completely individual process based on their goals, experience, application deadlines and target universities or architecture offices. You may begin with no portfolio, bring an unfinished one, or ask for a professional review and improvement of an existing portfolio.

I am an architect, artist, author, former Head of an Architecture Department and international lecturer with more than 25 years of experience in architecture, design, creative education and portfolio development. My role is not to impose a generic style, but to help you discover what makes your work unique and transform it into a clear, memorable and convincing portfolio.
