You won't just receive a generic checklist. I'll look at your actual work, understand what you're trying to achieve and give you practical, personalised feedback on what is working, what isn't, and exactly how you can improve it. My approach is supportive but honest — the goal isn't simply to make your portfolio look prettier. It's to make your design thinking, skills and personality immediately understandable to whoever is viewing it. Whether you're a first-year student struggling with presentation, a final-year student preparing your portfolio, a graduate applying for your first job, or an experienced architect looking to reposition yourself, I can help. 🌱 ARE YOU STUCK WITH YOUR PORTFOLIO? Perhaps you have too much work and don't know what to remove. Perhaps your projects are strong but your portfolio doesn't communicate that. Perhaps your CV feels generic. Perhaps you keep applying for jobs but aren't getting interviews. Or perhaps you simply want an experienced architect to look at your work and give you an objective professional opinion. That's exactly what this service is for. 📍 ONLINE TUTORING Sessions can be conducted online, making them suitable for students and professionals in Dubai, the UAE, UK and internationally.
