And he says, “Every teacher talks about it, but there is no denying the satisfaction in seeing a student take interest and learn a skill for the first time.” And he adds that his students learn, “Attention to detail, strategic planning, commitment to expectations and a no-doubt confidence in their skills to work on any type of engine or outdoor power equipment.” He also models behavior which will help his students to be successful in life.What other teachers have an unbridled passion for helping their students to learn and grow as people?
