Ratings & Review
Concern fella (Current student as of November 2026)
Mediocrity teaching ; mediocre students
Tried to voice out my concerns at the beginning of the program. But I received a take it or leave it response. Mediocrity at its best. No supervision of entry-level instructors, resulting in a catastrophic failure to students. Disappointing. Do not waste time here. Your time is valuable to be receiving a very low quality instruction. No wonder! The 30% graduation rate says it all.
Concern fella does not recommend the school.
