Everyone has their favorite garment, a pair of trousers that fit perfectly, a top like a second skin , what is yours?

How can we copy these garments without cutting them into pieces?

You can do this !

This course is for all levels ,you don't need any prequisits.

Sure you should be able to sew a little bit.After the rub off you get your patterns and then finally you have to sew them.

And you will be happy about the result.

You need only a few tools to do your rub off : muslin ,pins ,pencil,ruler , measuring tape and sissoirs.

In this course I will show how to do the rub off: copying the pattern and then making a new piece.I will show you step by step how to copy the pattern .Then you are able to sew your best piece!

I demonstrate in this course how to copy a pair of trousers (asymetric) .

You will see how to copy the trousers: the two fronts, the back and the waistband.

In this video you will also learn how to copy pleats ,darts ,patch pocket and insert pocket.And with this knowlegde you will be able to copy any garment.

After this course you will be able to create a new favorite garment, in the future you will have only favorite garments in your closet!

Pick a beloved piece and let's start the course!

Do you want to learn how to go from an idea to a tangible 3D-printed prototype? In this practical SolidWorks course, I will guide you step by step through the entire design process.

This is not a standard course, but a personal and guided learning experience. Together, we work on your own projects, so that you not only learn the software, but also truly learn how to design.

You will learn, among other things:
• 3D modeling of parts from scratch
• Building assemblies
• Creating technical drawings
• Preparing models for 3D printing
• File structure and management (important for real projects)

My approach is practical and results-oriented: we work on real ideas and turn them into concrete products.

Suitable for beginners and hobbyists interested in CAD modeling.

My classes are designed to help students and professionals build strong skills in Technical Drawing, AutoCAD, SketchUp, and Fusion 360 (CAD/CAM), whether you are a complete beginner or looking to advance your existing knowledge.

The first class allows us to get to know each other, assess your current skill level, and clearly understand your learning goals. During this session, we will discuss what you want to achieve, whether it is exam preparation, academic support, project assistance, professional development, or mastering industry-standard CAD/CAM workflows.

After the introductory session, I create a personalized learning plan tailored to your needs and pace. My teaching style is practical, patient, and interactive, with step-by-step guidance, hands-on exercises, and real-world examples to ensure you gain both confidence and technical competence.

Hello everyone, I have been teaching ArchiCAD for over three years, guiding students from complete beginners to advanced users. In our lessons, we begin by exploring the interface and essential tools, then proceed to create floor plans for rooms and apartments, design single-family houses, and develop more complex projects, such as cafés and restaurants.

The entire course is taught in English, but I can also teach in Ukrainian and Turkish. The program can be fully customized to each student’s needs and goals. It will be a pleasure to meet you!

Have you ever found the perfect 3D model online, only to realize it’s just a little too small, or missing a hole you need? Or maybe you have a brilliant idea for an invention, a custom bracket, or a replacement part for your house, but you have no idea how to design it from scratch?

AutoDesk Fusion 360 is one of the best solutions for beginners, hobbyists and even professionals when it comes to learning the basics of Computer Aided Design (CAD). Fusion 360 is also free to use for students or for personal use, making it easily accessible to anybody who knows how to use a computer.

Our 1-on-1, beginner-friendly tutoring skips the confusing training and teaches you exactly what you need to know to make awesome, real-world objects using a 3D printer.

Opening Fusion 360 for the first time can feel like sitting in the cockpit of a spaceship—there are just too many buttons.

Instead of just memorizing what the buttons do, you will build real-world skills through practical, print-focused milestones. Here is exactly what you will learn to do inside Fusion 360:

What You’ll Learn to Create (Step-by-Step)
We don't do boring, repetitive exercises or fill in workbooks. You'll learn by making real things every session using our on-site Bambu Lab printers! Here is what you’ll be able to do:

🛠️Design Custom Replacement Parts
Learn how to measure a broken item in your house (like a plastic clip, a battery cover, or a knob) with a pair of calipers and recreate it perfectly on your screen.

No more throwing things away just because a small plastic piece snapped. This give you an opportunity to learn why the original part broke and how you can make a more functional part of your own.

📐Make "Smart" Models That Resize Instantly
Learn the magic of making a design that adapts. You’ll create a project—like a storage box—where you can change one number (like the width), and the rest of the box automatically updates itself without ruining your work. You can reuse your own designs over and over for different projects.

🧩Design Parts That Fit and Move Together
Learn the secret to designing moving parts. We will show you exactly how much "breathing room" (clearance) to leave between plastic parts so that hinges swing, drawers slide, functional threads and lids snap shut without getting stuck.

🔩Mix Plastic with Real Hardware
Learn how to design perfect holes for metal screws, slots to drop in hex nuts, and spaces for bearings. Plastic unfortunately can't do everything, but with a bit of help from off the shelf parts, you can make your models and prints work with some very novel advantages sometimes not even possible in traditional manufacturing.

✂️"Remix" Existing 3D Files (STLs)
Take those files you download from websites like Thingiverse or Printables and learn how to actually change them. You'll learn how to cut parts off, stretch shapes, or add your own text and logos to existing models. Make anything fit your purpose and modify parts.

Engineering and design become much easier when analysis, geometry, technical representation, digital modelling, spatial reasoning, and visual communication are connected within one coherent problem-solving process.

I am a PhD-qualified engineer, university professor, researcher, technical trainer, designer, and multidisciplinary consultant with more than 30 years of experience across engineering, teaching, project work, CAD, technical drawing, 3D modelling, GIS, visualization, information systems, and professional problem solving.

This class provides a personalized pathway for school and university students, engineering and design learners, architects and technicians, researchers, professionals, career changers, and adult learners. Depending on your goals, we can focus deeply on one specialized area or connect several areas within a complete technical workflow.

Depending on your objectives, practical work may involve AutoCAD, Revit, BIM workflows, Rhino, Grasshopper, SolidWorks, Inventor, 3ds Max, ArcGIS Desktop, ArcGIS Pro, Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, or other relevant technical and design tools.

My teaching approach follows a structured workflow:
define the problem → understand the requirements → analyze the constraints → develop the geometry or data structure → create the drawing, model, or spatial analysis → verify accuracy → refine the solution → communicate it clearly

I do not simply demonstrate isolated commands. I help you understand why a workflow is appropriate, how information should be structured, how accuracy can be verified, how alternative solutions can be evaluated, and how the final technical idea should be communicated professionally.

We can work with your course syllabus, engineering problem, technical drawing, CAD file, Revit/BIM model, 3D model, parametric definition, GIS dataset, map, design project, portfolio, graphic layout, or professional workflow challenge.

Whether you are learning your first CAD commands, solving an engineering problem, developing a BIM workflow, building a 3D or parametric model, conducting spatial analysis, or improving technical visual communication, I will adapt the sessions to your level, objectives, and pace.

My goal is to help you become an independent technical problem solver who can analyze, design, model, verify, visualize, and communicate solutions with confidence.
