Time and patience leads: segts pportunities 'xp 1 ff Auto Mechanics is a helpful class to take if you plan to take on a career as a Automotive Technician. It teaches you the techniques that you need to know to make it as a successful mechanic. The automotive course gives you the opportunity to learn statistics such as how to overhaul a car engine, fix a carburetor, set timing, how to take care of a problem in the electronic ignition system, and many other major or minor problems that can go wrong with a car. Auto Mechanics is a three hour class that consists of instruction on how to deal with any kind of car related problem you have. While in class you are able to work on your own car as well as others brought in by the school. Mr. Joseph Boerner tfacultyj who teaches Auto Mechanics, helps his students in repairing their cars when they have a problem. Most already know pretty much how to fix it themselves, but Mr. Boerner is always their to lend a helping hand or a word of encouragement. When the students leave the class, they come out with knowledge that will be helpful to them when they go on search to look for 'obs. This knowledge gives their employer the sense they are capable of doing the job right.
