Instructor Details

Omar Koryakin

Hi, I'm Omar a Principal Mechanical Engineer with 11+ years of hands-on experience designing, measuring, and validating precision products across medical devices, automotive, consumer electronics, and IoT.


Why I teach on Udemy:
I've always felt that engineering education is either too theoretical (textbooks full of equations with no context) or too shallow (YouTube tutorials that skip the "why"). My courses aim for the middle built from real factory-floor experience, explained in plain language, and visualized through real animations, not bullet-point slides.

The lesson is a detailed one. I just wished the instructor can give exercises at the end of the lessons.

Not at all good

By Israr Ahmed on 8/13/2025

it's really helpful for beginners. the good thing is that when you watching videos you don't get bored

By Anonymized User on 6/17/2025

It wasn't a good match to me because I don't necessarily use Solidworks at all, but the knowledge for anyone learning is worth it.

By Eulah Goodwin on 5/25/2024

Good course and he has good skills in Solidworks as seen from his other courses too. Highly recommend

By Brant Pouros on 5/25/2024

The instructor speaks English clearly and slowly I think he accounts for those whom English is not their native language. Good insights

By Freddie Hudson on 4/19/2024

For me that was helpful as a student. We carryout uni projects but first I needed to understand about Solidworks as I dont really have any knowledge of it so this course helped me quite a lot

By Youssef mohamed salama ebrahim saidahmed on 4/13/2024

very good but it needs to make a big project to explain all the tools.

By Sunita Bajaj on 4/3/2024

The instructor is well paced in explaining the topics I needed someone like that to pause a bit so that I can grasp the information I found in many courses the instructions were too fast so this is perfect for me I have to admit that I am a slow learner

By Hamza Chihane on 3/31/2024

The course is highly valuable, offering a wealth of information. The instructor is exceptional, employing an amazing method of explanation.
