commitment and passion
“I had a great experience with Jacob and Tangably! I am a practiced user of VW, with over 10 years experience, and found Jacob to have a wealth of knowledge in our one-on-one training. He was a very helpful, direct instructor and was able to bounce around from topic to topic and answer all my questions as they came up. I walked away with some new tools in my (proverbial) toolbelt and an increased confidence in using the program."

a wealth of knowledge
"I am pleased to recommend the tutoring services of Jacob Dale at Tangably. Even though I had used Vectorworks for years I recognized that I was not using the CAD application to its full potential. Each session has been a breakthrough for me as we have covered features and capabilities. I had previously read the available training books and looked at training videos, but in the real-time training Jacob has helped me get past an endless number of dead ends. In a few weeks we have built up the plans for my lake house, which I can now see in 3D views."
