Study for the tests and when you get the tests, read the questions very carefully because sometimes the wording is confusing or is meant to throw you off. If you're a girl, don't wear your acrylics or hair down to class. Know how D2L works and check it frequently. Wear all the safety gear, listen to instructions, and don't do anything unless Mr. Panetta told you to. Otherwise, you'll mess something up or break something and he will be upset.

I've had Mr. Panetta for Gr. 10, Gr. 11, and Gr. 12 Auto and every year, he never fails to exceed my expectations as a teacher. He tries to incorporate the Chromebooks and D2L into the class and you rarely write your own notes. His notes and test review is always online available for you. He is very fair when it comes to test dates and makes sure it's okay with the students before setting any dates. Mr. Panetta has always been my fun teacher and he's super awesome. He reminds me a lot of the movie Sandlot for some reason, but in the best way possible. I think he is a great teacher and he is amazing at what he does. Not only does he teach you how to change someone's tires, he makes sure you know what you're doing when you get your first car.
