Bill’s Answer

Hi Brooklyn,

I learning to be a mechanic to have a stable job, while continuing your education is a great idea. Mechanics will always be in demand and should offer some flexibility on the hours you work to continue studies evenings/weekends, etc. Automotive technology continues to become more and more complex, so combining mechanic work with say a degree in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering or Computer Science might be a few options. You'll need to be highly disciplined to work and continue studies, but I'm confident that you have the energy and dedication to be successful in this long-term project.

Bill recommends the following next steps:

Talk to your guidance counselor at school
Reach out to a local Community College and setup a meeting with an advisor
Consider things that really appeal to you, so work is very enjoyable
