the article discusses the use of FEM software to help lecturer to teach design of electrical machines. Nowadays, lecturers have less and less time to teach the design of electrical machines. Special tools based on FEM can help them in this task. In past years, such tools needing sophisticated environments have been realized for designers in industry. Assuming minimum equipment, requirements, guidelines and a realization of a specific tool are presented.
