About Rahul

I am a UK qualified RIBA/ARB Part II Architectural Assistant who is keen to help others who are starting out or currently within their architectural studies.

Having completed my undergraduate degree at the Leicester School of Architecture, I joined a small residential practice as a Part I where I learned an extensive amount about UK practice and regulations. I returned to my studies for my MArch at the University of Nottingham, where I demonstrated my abilities by achieving 70-80% in most of my modules.

Whilst in the final year of my master's, I successfully tutored First Year BArch students, helping with architectural design, learning new CAD software, and more, in a manner similar to the lessons outlined in my lesson plan.

I am now working for a medium-sized practice, Burrell Foley Fischer, in Central London, focusing on retrofit and existing buildings, particularly within the cultural/commercial sector such as theatres, schools, etc.

Perfect! Rahul has been such a huge help throughout my studies. I was really struggling with construction details but he explained everything so clearly and made it much easier to understand. He was always patient and made sure I actually got what was going on which gave me a lot more confidence. He also supported me with essay writing and even helped me work through other problems I was facing. It honestly made a big difference knowing I had someone I could ask for guidance whenever I was stuck. I have improved a lot thanks to their support and I really appreciate all the time and effort he gave me. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is finding things difficult. He made a big difference for me.
