INTERESTED IN BEING A FIXIT COACH? IT’S EASY!
FIXIT COACHES PROVIDE PARTICIPANTS WITH:
- guidance on tools
- encouragement to investigate their broken item.
TIPS FOR FIXIT COACHES:
- Let them talk about how they used it and how it broke. That often provides valuable hints as to what’s wrong.
- See how much you can do without actually handling the item. Empower the item’s owner to do the troubleshooting and disassembly.
- Register to be a coach here.
