...his character and abundance in enthusiasm, humour and positive energy reflect through his professionally conducted lectures and well organised tutorials. He is full of great ideas on how a feedback session should be run. He is easily accessible, gives feedback that helps us achieve well yet he does not give answers. He communicates very well, we are always quite clear on what needs to be done and what is expected. Overall, Khoa makes a positively sizable difference in the way I personally experience this course. (eVALUate 2007)
The education of the discipline of architecture has its traditional roots in the master-apprentice relationship. The apprentice is actively learning through the master who is immersed in the contemporary practices of architecture. With the rapid advancements in the intelligence of computer software such as the Building Information Modelling platform and the ever-evolving array of building materials, the need for universities to educate new and emerging architects on contemporary practices is paramount in order to produce successful graduates with relevant skills and knowledge.
