using tile adhesive to level up the walls can get very messy indeed, even for a seasoned pro. trying to pull a tile off the wall covered in adhesive and thicken out tends to make a right mess, particularly with the grout joints.

i would recommend using plaster to level up, then at least you will have a more straight forward tiling job.
