Here, No Question is Ever a Silly One

Understanding car ownership and maintenance can save you time, money, and hassle. At Mechanic Shop Femme, I created a space for you to ask your questions, even the ones you might be embarrassed to ask someone else, and the ones you haven't even thought of. Educating yourself in an unintimidating way will help you take control at the shop, dealership, and of your vehicle. Whether you want to just ask a quick question, chat with an unbiased expert, read something interesting or dive into the fundamentals that every car driver should know in a virtual class, this is a place you'll feel good about.

Live lessons

Want to be a more educated car owner? My virtual classes are designed for regular car owners who want to better understand their cars and protect their investment.

What clients are saying …

I don’t have a ton of experience with cars, and, honestly, stereotypical “car people” are a little intimidating to me. After going over my needs and goals with Chaya I really feel like I’m in a much better position to advocate for myself and find the right fit for me. Thanks, Chaya! Read More Mattie Boyd
Chaya was a fabulous presenter – visually appealing materials, plenty of time and care for specific questions, and really an expert in her field! I left feeling confident in what I wanted in a car, how much I wanted to pay, and in my ability to negotiate. I’m excited to learn from Chaya again. Read More Violet Benn
Chaya’s class was very well organized around several topics and delivered in a clear, no BS manner. She’s excellent at navigating the technology of FB live + PowerPoint + answering questions as they roll in, even repeat questions. She even throws in some good life lessons. Read More Amy Cranch
