24 Reviews for Rhino-Grasshopper
The grasshopper lesson with Sukey was nice class where it is clear and engaging, making it easy for me to understand.
he was very educated on grasshopper and really helped me solve my problem. What would’ve taken med days took hours
Andrew was amazingly helpful. Patient and easily reachable even though we are in different time zones. I could not have completed my project without him.
I got tutors literally right away, and the two that I have met with have been awesome! Calvin R is my favorite. He is insane at rhino and literally saved me in my architecture class. He's also super fun and funny, so that makes homework easier! 10/10
Calvin is great with Rhino!
Calvin is a phenomenal Rhino tutor. He is patient and has a wealth of knowledge. I highly recommend him!
Andrew is deeply patient, creative and personable. I really love working with him
Sukey was of great help for me just starting out in CAD jewelry design. She’s very knowledgeable, respectful, and committed to her work. I think anyone would be happy to invest their time and money in learning from someone like Sukey!
Andrew is incredibly patient, deeply knowledgeable about the programs in question (in the most recent case, autocad) and just always has a great attitude and flexibility. 10/10 will work with him again!!!
Calvin was great and straight forward in explaining how to navigate the Rhino/grass hopper software. …
Calvin's Rhino lesson was so clear and moved at a great pace. I accomplished so much in one lesson!
We dove right in and he solved my issue quickly and easily.
Sukey was very thorough and I could tell did a lot of ground work before the session. Having notes already done and able to be emailed to me was a huge help and allowed me to focus during the session without the added time to stop and take many of my own notes. Was very happy with the first session and immediately scheduled a second.
He was fun, patient, and super helpful!
He was very patient and eager to help me out. We worked in Rhino and in twinmotion. I recommend his service every chance I get!
Andrew was so patient and flexible. His ability to know the MAC capabilities of autocad was super helpful and he was so understanding. It was an incredibly empowering experience and I recommend him highly!
I needed a tutor who could help me in my own particular way, and Andrew has been great. It's a great comfort knowing he's available in the future.
Andrew was excellent and knew exactly how to help me with my project. He’s also fun to work with and I was so impressed with his level of expertise! He’s a genius!
Amazing Tutor! Andrew H. really knows how to use Rhino.
I enjoyed working with Andrew H. He was extremely helpful and patient!!
Andrew is extremely knowledgeable in Grasshopper software. He is also very patient and understands how to convey the information in different ways to make it understandable. I look forward to leaning more!
Cameron is so nice. Knowledgeable. Patient! What an excellent Rhino tutor.
Andrew knows grasshopper well! He gave me good directions for the problems I encountered, with several different approaches. He followed my guidelines to let me also take over the work he did so I can learn the software efficiently. Now I will work to push one solutons he proposed and come back to him to show him my progress and request for help if required.
Andrew is flexible and very helpful!!! My son gets a lot of help with Rhino from him.

About Rhino-Grasshopper
Rhino and Grasshopper are powerful design tools used in architecture, engineering, and product design. Rhino, or Rhinoceros, is a 3D modeling software known for its versatility in creating complex shapes with ease.
It's widely used for industrial design, architecture, and automotive design due to its precise modeling capabilities. Grasshopper, on the other hand, is a visual programming language plugin for Rhino. It allows users to create parametric designs by connecting various components graphically.
This approach enables designers to explore and manipulate complex geometries quickly, making it popular in fields where intricate shapes and structures are common. The combination of Rhino and Grasshopper is particularly useful for generative design, where algorithms are used to explore a range of design options based on specific parameters. This iterative process can lead to innovative solutions that might be challenging to achieve through traditional modeling methods.
Overall, Rhino and Grasshopper offer a powerful toolkit for designers seeking to create complex, parametric designs efficiently.

Tutors & Services Philosophy
Don't Learn Alone
Professionals these days are sitting alone and staring at their computers. They spend years searching online for tools that will increase their workplace efficiency—digging through forums and watching lengthy videos for the right CAD or visualization tip.
Sometimes they just have one small question that would take a person two minutes to answer, but customer support lines are a thing of the past. Big companies will direct you to an FAQ that will hardly begin to answer your question.
Bring Back the Human Connection
We strive to bring human connection back to the work environment. Our tutors work directly with you to solve your problems, similar to the way an apprentice works hand-in-hand with a skilled professional.
Screen-share technologies like Zoom have allowed us to work together in real time. We can see each others' screens and cursors, switch presenters to share information easily, and even turn on webcams for a more human interaction. Learn efficiently across workflows like architectural rendering, interiors, mechanical modeling, and construction documentation.
Tutors, Services, or Both
Sometimes our clients want to learn a program from beginning to end; sometimes they completely hand over the services to us; and other times, they want something in between.
Some clients want to be able to use the program on a basic level and let us do the hard stuff. Others want to co-work with us, supervising our work to ensure their artistic vision is realized. Along the way, they learn the tools—whether that’s SketchUp, Blender, Fusion 360, Revit, or AutoCAD.
By the end of the process, some clients are able to wean themselves completely off of our services and are empowered to do the work themselves. If they get stuck or behind on a deadline, they use us as a lifeline. They can call anytime—even if it’s just a 10-minute question—we are here to help.
