2025 MTE - Class Schedule for Mike Phillips

I'm teaching two fun and interesting topics at Mobile Tech Expo in 2025.

How to teach a car detailing class
If you’ve been thinking about branching out from your normal business and offer car detailing classes to the public, be sure to sign-up for and take this class by Mike Phillips. Mike has been teaching car detailing classes that he can document back to the year 1987. Since then, he’s taught hundreds, even thousands of car and boat detailing classes. In this class he’ll share the format and techniques that have made his classes popular world-wide as well as the most hands-on classes on planet Earth.



How to teach a boat detailing class
Mike can document his formal boat detailing classes back to the year 2013. Teaching a boat detailing class requires just the right boat, all the right tools and products and most of all, experience detailing boats and experience teaching detailing classes. In this class he’ll share the format and techniques that have made his classes popular world-wide as well as the most hands-on classes on planet Earth.

Mike's teaching style is to be energetic and animated while constantly interacting with the audience. Mike's classes historically have a reputation of being high-energy. While Mike abhors PowerPoint presentations, due to the location and classroom setting, he will be using a picture-intensive PowerPoint.
