2. What qualified this person as an expert in your topic choice?
- He is qualified in my book because he has many years of experience, pretty much born into a being a mechanic. He knows his way around every common malfunction the old school way, without the help of computer diagnostic.
3.List three questions for further exploration now that you've completed your summer hours.
- How can one keep their vehicle in the best mechanical condition possible without servicing it in the dealer?
- What long/short term investments can be made on a vehicle to expand life time?
- What can one do without spending money to extend the lifetime of their vehicles?
4. What is the most important thing you gained from this experience? Why?
- I've always wanted to be a prestigious and respected mechanic in the racing world. However, this experience has crushed my dreams because when wrenching, you get dirty, sweaty, potential to injury, and lets not even mention the frustrating part.
- My senior topic is going to be about cars and what the owner can do to keep them mechanically strong, and visually appealing.
- My mentorship helped me make my decision by providing a place where I could stand on and expand my knowledge from there. For example, where to jack up a car and where not to, to let the car run for 6-8 minutes before changing the oil, and why its important to wax a car. When I completed my summer mentorship I felt like I learned a lot that needed to be passed on to every vehicle owner. That is why I'm still continuing my dream of doing the senior project on automotive maintenance.
