I have two years of hands-on experience working as a mechanic in my home country, where I developed strong skills in vehicle maintenance, repairs, and troubleshooting. During that time, I learned most of my work through practical experience, gaining expertise in handling various mechanical components and tools.

After moving here, I decided to continue in the same field, but I initially faced challenges due to the differences in the work environment, tools, and vehicle parts. However, through dedication and adaptability, I quickly familiarized myself with the new systems and technologies. Now, I am confident in my skills and able to efficiently diagnose and repair vehicles, ensuring quality workmanship and customer satisfaction.
