John's Revit MEP courses saved the day! I started a new MEP job with little by way of mentorship and got assigned a new project in Revit. I was able to submit my model and prelim drawings on time this week. Not only that, but my speed and competence in Revit convinced my boss to pay for my own license. My ability to create and update my own models allows me more authority over the design which was a problem in the past with a CAD manager. Our collection of models is a mess as we don’t have a BIM manager, and the drafters appear to despise Revit. I would highly recommend John's Revit MEP Course to anyone interested in improving their modeling time in Revit or using Revit as an alternative to other software like Bluebeam or AutoCAD. I have failed to find a better resource so far!
I deeply appreciate the extensive knowledge and expertise you bring to your course, which is evident in every lesson. Your skill in making complex concepts easy to understand is not only commendable but also makes the learning process thoroughly enjoyable and straightforward. Your patience and support throughout the course, particularly your willingness to answer questions and offer additional explanations, have been instrumental in helping us grasp the finer details of Revit. I particularly value the way you integrate real-world examples into the course material, which not only solidifies our understanding but also highlights the practical applications of the concepts we're learning. The interactive style of your teaching keeps the entire class engaged and eager to participate, clearly reflecting your passion for plumbing and your contagious enthusiasm. I am also grateful for your unwavering commitment to our success; your dedication to ensuring that each student comprehends the material and thrives in the course is nothing short of admirable. Moreover, your passion for teaching is both inspiring and motivating, providing us with valuable insights and encouragement as we embark on our own careers in the field. The professionalism you exhibit in delivering the course sets a high standard, evident in the organized structure of the lessons and the respect you show for both the subject matter and the students. Lastly, the constructive feedback you provide is invaluable, offering insights and suggestions that help us continuously improve and deepen our understanding.
I have sat through many online MEP tutorials struggling to learn Revit for HVAC & Plumbing but this course is by far the best. Also, John (aka the Alien) provide excellent practical advice to be more efficient in Revit with examples based on his project experiences. I was able to use a lot of tips to cut my time in completing a project. If you are looking for a quick and easy start to learning Revit, this is one of the courses you need to be looking at. For the cost you can’t go wrong. I whole-heartedly recommend it.
I appreciated the way he presented the material in a very practical and common sense way.
First, thank you for creating the Revit MEP Course for absolute beginners -my office & team have been using them exclusively to help us learn Revit. We have been especially struggling with how to draw/how much to draw for a 5 story multi family apartment project, and your course have been a fantastic learning tool. Thank you John.I had an Excellent experience with John. For anyone looking for a career in Construction. I highly recommend you contacting John. I sincerely thank him for his support.
I highly recommend John " the Alien" for anyone looking to study Revit MEP and AutoCAD from the beginning. He is extremely knowledgeable and highly motivated instructor. Thank you John for everything.
