The first step to any successful tile installation is the layout. Tile is a permanent surface that you will have to live with for many years...you'll want to get it right the first time!
Many problems arise simply from not knowing how to measure and layout the area. There are many books and courses that explain other aspects of tile jobs such as setting materials, tools, tear down, etc. Proper layout of the tile job is the single most important factor that separates an amateur from a professional.

Eastern New York is dominated by the Great Appalachian Valley. Lake Champlain is the chief northern feature of the valley, which also includes the Hudson River. The Hudson is noted for its beauty, as are Champlain and neighboring Lake George. West of the lakes are the rugged Adirondack Mts., another major vacationland, with extensive wildernesses and sports centers like Lake Placid and Saranac Lake. Mt. Marcy (5,344 ft/1,629 m), the highest point in the state, is near Lake Placid. The rest of NE New York is hilly, sloping gradually to the valleys of the St. Lawrence and Lake Ontario, both of which separate it from Ontario. The Mohawk River, which flows from Rome into the Hudson north of Albany, is part of the New York State Canal System's Erie Canal, once a major route to the Great Lakes and the midwestern United States as well as the only complete natural route through the Appalachian Mts.
