OMG, the poor tech dealing with me was incredibly kind. It took WAY too long for me to get the hang of the hum and breathe and he was so incredibly patient. I only realize now that I actually never got his name.
And I wish I did because while Im still mastering the mid-drive test (lets just say thats insanely hard while youre trying to dodge idiot drivers and pedestrians who just walk out in front of you), after I left the shop, I NAILED IT repeatedly with a max of three tries getting back into my car after each of my stops. Huzzah!! Im not sitting somewhere dangerous just trying to start my car!!!
I kinda think I was overwhelmed and this lovely man was so patient. I kept him outside for a long time. Like a REALLY long time. And I started to notice and thats what exacerbated the whole thing.
If I can offer some feedback: I 100% understand that its his job to ensure that the knowledge is mastered. But as a STEM girl who tends to forget how to type when my boss is standing over me when Im trying to solve a problem, maybe just take a step back. Dont hover, stay close, but let me sit a minute and try on my own without someone all up in my bizz. Because honestly I was getting more keyed up about keeping him outside than anything else which was making everything that much harder as it went on.
He was an outstanding teacher who did everything by the book. I just kinda wish the book didnt involve looming over someone and instead let them stand against the wall to wait for the engine to come on if the newb needs that.
