Architecture - creating the best portfolio for Architecture schools

Àpd 75.07 € /h

Creating a portfolio to apply to architecture schools may seem imitating.
But with good guidance, you will be able to project yourself in creative and articulate ways.
You do not need to have creative skills and talent (these will develop in time), but an open mind, curiosity and eagerness to research, explore, develop and represent issues in different medias and in space.
I will be happy to work with you and teach you methodologies of design, creative thought, drawing and more in order to create a portfolio and prepare you for exams and interviews.

I am a 15 year experienced architect in NY and Tel-Aviv and a lecturer/tutor in Shenkar College.

Currently in my 3rd year of architecture, I give architecture project lessons but also coach lessons, Sketchup, lumion. I can also give English lessons.
At the beginning it is always difficult to master the software and to materialize your ideas well and it is for this reason that I wish to help others.

Cette formation a pour but d’inculquer aux étudiants des outils professionnels et avance pour créer des images ou des graphismes à l'aide de logiciels informatiques pour tous types de supports numériques.
Ainsi à travers ses cours vous pouvez crée des images en 2D comme en 3D. En 2D à travers le logiciel AutoCAD qui permet de réaliser des dessins, des conceptions et des modélisations 2D, ensuite il y a ArchiCAD qui permet la création de dessin d'architecture en 3D. Et enfin on a Photoshop qui vous permet d’amélioré vos image et aussi les transformer en des nouvelles images.
L'infographiste est donc reconnu comme un créatif, doué d'un talent artistique certain.

J’accompagne les étudiants ou futurs étudiants en architecture dans la compréhension des concepts théoriques, leur application en projet et le développement d’une méthode de travail rigoureuse. Mon approche pédagogique est claire, structurée et adaptée au niveau de chacun. Que ce soit pour une remise à niveau, une préparation d’examen ou un accompagnement en projet, mon objectif est de vous donner les outils nécessaires pour gagner en compréhension, en autonomie et en confiance !

Je partage aujourd’hui mon activité entre la pratique professionnelle et l’enseignement universitaire à l'ULB.
Actuellement chez Pierre Blondel Architectes à Bruxelles, j'ai l'habitude de travailler les questions liées aux projets d'équipements et logements collectifs. Cette expérience me permet d’apporter à mes élèves une approche concrète, méthodique et directement liée aux réalités du métier. En parallèle, je suis assistante universitaire à l’ULB pour le cours de mathématiques, et chargée pédagogique pour les cours de projets, géométrie euclidienne et géométrie descriptive.
