It was a nice intro to Automotive Engineering and almost all topics were covered. It is very suitable for those wants to have a general information about that area. However it can be better to have more attentive presentation visualisation.

The instructor is competent in the subject matter, however he needs to improve his English pronunciation. Speaking slower can improve the overall understanding of what he explains.

I am highly impressed with how well this course content was laid out. Since each topic progresses logically from the last one, the course is very engrossing and makes you want to continue. The author's explanations are also very grounded in "why" a certain practice is beneficial and was adopted. Lastly, I have to commend the author's English skills - I have a minor hearing impairment and the effort he invested in speaking clearly is appreciated. I can't imagine teaching on this level in another language. The only feedback I could offer would be to add polish. There are some minor spelling and grammatical blemishes, and a few slides at the end that forgo narration where the topic is extensive enough to warrant some verbal expansion. All things considered, though, I am very happy to have found Rasheed's lessons and am excited to see what else he can share.
