About Griffin
My interest in architecture began during my Master’s Degree in Architecture, where I explored how spaces influence human experience. I was always interested in design, creativity, and how ideas can be turned into real structures. Over the past 6 years, I have worked with many students, helping them develop strong design understanding and creative confidence through structured teaching.
I believe that architecture should feel creative and not confusing when it is taught in a simple and organized way. My teaching approach focuses on breaking down design concepts into clear steps so students can understand them easily. I use sketches, examples, and guided exercises to support learning. I also adapt my teaching style based on each student’s learning pace so they feel comfortable and motivated.
Outside of teaching, I continue exploring architectural ideas and improving my teaching methods. This helps me provide better learning experiences. Teaching architecture is very meaningful to me because I enjoy helping students express their creativity, build confidence, and develop strong design thinking skills that support their growth.

Architecture becomes more interesting when students understand how ideas turn into meaningful spaces instead of only focusing on drawings. In my lessons, I focus on building strong design understanding through simple and clear explanations. We begin with basic concepts such as shapes, proportions, and spatial thinking. I guide students step by step so they can understand how designs are created and developed. This helps students build confidence in expressing their ideas.
As students improve, I introduce more advanced topics such as design planning, model creation, material understanding, and presentation techniques. I explain each concept carefully so students can apply their knowledge effectively. Each lesson includes practice activities, sketching exercises, and feedback sessions to improve creativity and accuracy. I also support students in developing structured design approaches.
Architecture lessons also help students develop creativity, observation skills, and problem-solving ability. They learn how to think visually and express ideas clearly. Over time, students become more confident in their creative abilities. My goal is to make architecture simple, engaging, and inspiring while helping students build strong design skills and confidence.
