Version taught is a higher version of the free version I have installed.

The basics, very well explained

By Kristin Bolstad on 11/15/2020

This version of Sketchup is not current

By Rosaleen Kavanagh on 9/27/2020

I can't get the right sketchup to match. I guess it's an older version on here.

By Walter Steeb on 9/14/2020

Very easy to do.

By Jane on 8/27/2020

its pretty bad because not everyone has the a mac book with a pro version.

By Jay Stracke on 7/27/2020

I enjoyed the course and watched it all in one sitting.

By Sanddhya Yadav on 7/22/2020

It is a great course to learn basics. I'd appreciate if I got solutions to my problems

By Kathleen Zane Goyak on 6/19/2020

Music is very distracting, as is beeping of mouse clicks. Explanations are presented too quickly and are confusing.

By KAREN Boness on 6/11/2020

Doesn't explain tool selections well. For example, you can enter dimensions for a new square, but how do you get the curser to the dimensions block and not lose the object you selected. Hard to see what the instructor is doing sometimes, like building the roof with the triangle. How did you create that triangle in the right plane? Not easy to see. I learned some good features about Sketchup but glad I didn't pay more that $10.

By Richard Davis on 5/18/2020

The course uses SketchUp 2016 and if you use a recent version, most things look different. For example, the crayon colour does not exist and I had to find the materials pallet to continue.

By Sonja on 5/12/2020

It's good, but the Sketchup software for download is not the same for the free web base software.
