Zakir: Northlake tutor

Certified Tutor

Besides being a practicing architect and a city and regional planner, I am passionate to teach students deriving a sense of immense satisfaction to help them learn and impart knowledge with a philosophy of inculcating and grooming creativity and humility in areas of professional education. I have acquired graduation in B. Architecture from NED University of Engineering & Technology, Karachi, Pakistan, and a Masters degree in City & Regional Planning from Ohio state University, Columbus, OH. I have taught students the courses ranging from Architectural Design, Building Construction, Building Science to Advanced Techniques in Contemporary Architectural Practice, with an inexhaustible list of other subjects in architectural curriculum & academia to carry out assignments as full-time and visiting faculty positions in public and private universities.

I possess a wealth of experience traveling places internationally to learn about different cultures including art & architecture.

I agree with a commonly stated notion that probably creativity cannot be taught; on the contrary I believe that it can be nurtured and polished with the act and the effort one inputs in acquiring knowledge and learning. Architecture and planning is both an art and a science which can be acquired with the time we spend in developing skills and capacity through learning those fragments of knowledge that comes in tits and bits from teachers with a devotion. I can help tutor those who are eager to learn with my endeavor to achieve that goal.
