Working with Lori Johnson was fantastic, she has great experience and a profound understanding of the automotive repair industry. When you get to connect with her, you’ll discover a fantastic person with a positive can-do attitude and unique skills! Lori Johnson is an excellent instructor, trainer and speaker.  I enjoyed working with her on the different projects at AskPatty.com.

“Lori is not only an incredibly knowledgeable technician, she is also an entertaining and engaging instructor. She kept our teen audience interested and involved the entire time, and anyone who has ever worked with teens knows this is no small feat!”

“Lori is a fabulous teacher and an inspiring woman. She is also single-handedly empowering women everywhere to approach life on a more equal footing. Suddenly, there is nothing scary or intimidating or inherently male about car care. I think that I speak for many women when I say that we are proud to count her as one of us!”

“The LSYE workshop is great! Lori is an excellent teacher. She’s knowledgeable, friendly and engaging, which makes the class enjoyable and beneficial for all the participants.”

Diedra Wylie

Assistant Manager, Communications, General Motors Western Region

“The class was absolutely terrific. I believe everyone who attended walked away with some new information and a little more confidence in maintaining their own cars for smaller issues. Thank you for the opportunity and experience. I look forward to having more.”

“Lori’s vast experience and qualifications makes her a perfect fit for facilitating these clinics for women.”

Christian Porter

Owner, Everest AutoWorks

“She started her instructional service for women this year because of what she often witnessed from her fellow, male wrench turners: condescension toward, and sometimes exploitation of, female customers.”

Lori was a fabulous instructor and we were thrilled to offer this class to our Chester County students.  She kept all students engaged and established rapport so everyone felt confident asking questions.  Can’t wait to welcome Lori back again next year!

“Fantastic class! Lori made it all so simple!”

Participant from Community College of Philadelphia

“As a Women’s Studies Professor I appreciate classes like Ladies Start your Engines that empower women in their everyday activities. Lori is a fantastic instructor who puts everyone at ease and gives hands-on examples. I learned a lot and feel much more confident about my car and about speaking to mechanics about any problems I might have.”

Mt. Airy Learning Tree Participant

“The most important part of the class to me was changing a tire, if I ever get another flat tire, I KNOW I can change it on my own. Hats off to you Ms. Johnson for the fabulous work shop. Every woman should attend one of your workshops.”

“It is so informative and well presented and taught in terms that we can understand. I had no idea that I could actually understand what was going on under my hood!”

“I have personally attended Lori’s Service Clinic and not only does she make it fun, she also does a great job of explaining difficult technical concepts. During this Service Clinic everyone has fun while learning. She teaches information that every driver should know about their vehicles.”
