Summer session class. We will meet 3 times per week.

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in my class. 

This class meets weekly and you can come and go as you need. This class is curriculum-based. Homework will be assigned. This curriculum is taught in high schools, colleges, home schools, and community centers across the country. The textbook is encouraged to study from.  I will be sharing slides, videos, real-life examples, and recommendations. Q and A's at the end of every class and optional hands-on projects that could be done at home. This class will be a smaller size to make sure the quality of what is being taught is understood and questions get the responses they deserve.

I was a past Automotive Professor at my local Community College, and a Car Care Store Manager for a large retail auto chain center that's recognized throughout the country.  I recently relocated to Florida, and now work remotely as a Mechanical Analyst who helps service professionals and customers with vehicle repair questions.  Always had a passion to help others because learning and understanding vehicle's could be tricky, but the reward for me is instilling learning for the next generations ahead.  I will ensure  that all questions are answered that will help my students learn better understand how vehicles work, but also have fun while in class.  I have my Bachelors in Business Management and also recognized by the highest automotive achievement in the profession which is the Automotive Standards of Excellence, (ASE) as both a Service Technician and a Service Consultant. I was also recognized by last state that I lived through the DMV license and theft bureau, to teach both OBD2 and Safety courses.

My goal at the end of the semester is for the student to have a basic understanding of cars and the automotive industry.
