ARCHILECTURE INDIA - Dombivli, Maharashtra

Deepti Verma

I've attended online lectures before, but this was the worst so far! They've given responsibility for delivering lectures to children, i suppose - as it was absolutely unorganised. Let me give all the pointers which led to the disappointment:

1. The lecture was on the topic "Architecture and Human Psychology". The speaker was using basic terminology and imposing her own thoughts on the listeners. She was asking questions and expecting answers only which suited her - without being prepared for anything other than that.

2. Her speaking skills were bad. Bad - nothing more, nothing less. While giving lectures, one needs to give some background or at least the sources one is referring to - rather than talking about things with loose ends. She just talked about what she thought. For instance - The architecture of the white house will make one feel proud for being able to stand in front of it. (Sorry, but this is straight up stupid!)

3. The certificate was promised to us via email - saying that it will be shared within 24-48 hours. The lecture was on 11.12.2024 and was supposed to be shared by 13.12.2024. I sent them whatsapp messages regarding the same and to one odd message they replied that it shall be delivered on Monday (16.12.2024) - post which they didn't reply at all. I received my certificate today (17.12.2024) - with the title of the lecture as "Human Psychology". Now I fail to understand how am i going to use this certificate considering the field I belong to!

So all in all, it was absolutely disappointing and embarrassing. Here I would like to add - being an educator, one needs to be honest - as the ones who are dependent on you for learning something new are clean slates. Please don't exploit learners.

I had enrolled for an online workshop that was supposed to be yesterday and I am not sure whether it happened or not because when I tried joining the Google meet link provided by them, it showed no meeting exists!! I lost my money is all I know!! I had sent multiple emails to them about resolving this on the spot , but everything was in vain.. I didn't recieve any response until now. So I had no other option than to post it here!!Never recommending this to anyone or ever coming back!!

I enrolled in an architectural journalism online workshop on 4th November 2024.A complete waste of 'Time & Money'.According to their Instagram handle, the presentation was intended to be given by a subject-matter expert or professional.It was all untrue,the workshop was led by an amateur who had no interest in teaching and was merely reading the slides.These types of websites, organisation and institutions that offer substandard teaching methods just for the purpose of making money and instilling false optimism in the guise of delivering quality knowledge should be discouraged. Extremely disappointed!

I attended your moodboard session yesterday and it's very pathetic. I think the girl who took the session is a fresher. She keep on repeating and the core session of the subject is not handled.. i thought of taking further courses but I'm afraid .. waste of time and money...

Was so excited that gonna learn something new about architectural journalism but once the session started, it was total dissappointment. An amateur was just going on and on like a rant without any proper structure and pause. Also her voice was breaking multiple times in between which she was not ready to admit. Kept saying " my internet is ok " which meant that other 17 participants all had a problem in their internet connection.Initially Had planned to attend a couple of workshops on seeing there ad in instagram. Dropped the plan. never coming back to this. Nothing gained from this.

I attend facade design class, it's waste of time. Only slides on type of facade shown on the webninar. Tutor is not much experience. We were hoping on how to compose exterior on practical aspect. But more 1st n 2nd year class type presentation.

Completely amateur unprofessionally setup webinar, started late with no explanation, instructor knows nothing new which can add value to anyone's education, cannot articulate comfortably in English (why offer a webinar in a language which you can't speak, most annoying). Drawing poorly with a pen tool on slides, like a last-minute effort. Slide presentation is badly put together, searching for images online during the webinar, so much time spent asking questions of the attendees and waiting for their answers....I left the webinar after half-hour of this torturous nonsense. WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME. May as well read a book on the topic.

I have joined the course Architecture Journalism. But nothing happened. Instructor started reading. But voice was not clear. Without any clarity, she left the meeting. Organisers didn't respond or picked calls.
