Guy Letrick has been teaching at Monmouth County Vocational for the last three years. Previously, he was the HVACR instructor at Lincoln Tech for 11 years. When Letrick came to Monmouth, he brought with him the idea that the classroom and the lab are no different from any other jobsite.

Letrick believes that if you can succeed on the school jobsite, you'll go far when you reach the real jobsite. His insistence on professionalism, attention to detail, and emphasis on hands-on learning have earned Letrick an honorable mention in The News' Instructor of the Year contest.
