Testimonials from SketchUp graduates
Good evening ! I want to leave my feedback on SketchUp - for me it was from scratch so it was very informative and interesting ! modules are divided by topics with a good time gap, not overloaded, which allows you to digest the material in full ! :) curators are very friendly, help and try to answer questions without delay !!!! For beginners who want to learn from scratch, I recommend this product !!!! I wish everyone success in learning and I hope that the programme will help to expand the opportunities in working with clients ! I put 10 ! Grafium once again pleased!!!!!

This is one of the few courses I have purchased that I have not abandoned and, I would like to say, I have completed in full. Although I've been familiar with Sketch Up for a long time, during the course I discovered a lot of useful tricks to simplify and structure my practice.
Thank you very much to the teacher and tutors, I couldn't have done it without your help (Alexander and Victoria, you're super). I'm very satisfied not so much with the result (although it's the result too, of course), but with the process itself, because everything was incredibly interesting and easy to explain. Thank you so much for your school, this is the second time I have studied with you and once again I am very satisfied! Rated 11\10!!!

Я пришла с базовыми знаниями о скечапе. Совсем не знала всех его возможных функций, и благодаря школе Графиум, я теперь могу уверенно использовать программу и творить! Все занятия были максимально полезны и понятны. Каждое видео длится недолго, от чего не устаешь, и переходишь сразу к следующему. Хочу выразить огромную благодарность нашему преподавателю Александру и нашим кураторам! Особо хочу отметить Викторию, которая всегда стремится поддержать и уладить все проблемы! Всегда помогут и подскажут
Kyunnei Degtyareva
Wonderful training! Perfect approach to teaching, Alexander - you are really great. But there were other mistakes besides the two-point perspective. And it is very important to pay attention to that too. (You didn't miss that) Accessible, engaging, fun.
Not only design and architecture, but also graphic and animation capabilities of different programmes are touched upon. You understand how to model more correctly, more conveniently, faster and better.
Thank you very much, guys! Keep developing! Success to you!!!
