20 Best G.E.D Programs In Port St. Lucie, FL (2022 Updated)

Do not go there for the adult culinary programs. They basically treat you like you work for their cafeteria and teach you NOTHING. The instructors are unprofessional, abrasive, and treat the adult students like children. You will be working in groups with absolutely no instruction (hands-on or otherwise) and you may get lucky and be able to make a small part of the recipe since groups are 4-5 people, each group works on a different recipe, and you will be preparing foods for them to sell to their high school students. The instructor basically heads you a recipe and that’s the extent of your “learning” aside from lots of tedious book work that you also do on your own. You will not even be allowed to taste what you made since it will be sold to school children. The instructor told us if they cannot sell the product you make, you get a “failing” grade, despite zero instruction. When asked why we aren’t all individually participating in making recipes, the answer was that they couldn’t sell that many of one item. I thought I paid a good amount of money (out-of-pocket) for them to cover the cost so that I could make a recipe and not make one recipe with four other people. I got my money back and already had a high-paying career in risk management, but other students continued with the program in hopes of obtaining work in restaurants or increasing their pay. I feel this program takes advantage of the difficult situations these other students faced, many of whom paid with financial aid or GI Bills. Also, the recipes they provide are portioned for home baking or cooking, not commercial. Find something or somewhere better to go. When I voiced my complaints about the instructor’s brash behavior and unwillingness to teach so that she could stand around on her cell phone texting, there were many excuses given and not once was she held accountable. On the contrary, I was told that she actively taught the class once or twice after I left and she chastised the adult students for complaining and then reverted back to her McDonald’s/DMV level of professionalism. It’s terrifying to imagine that children are left alone with these people.Elizabeth Grill

Save y’all time and money and go else where I was interested in there LPN program i called everyday for over two weeks and kept getting transferred to a voicemail it was so bad I had to went down there in person to speak to the person that’s in charge of that department it was a black African lady very nasty attitude name Rachel A Victor. When I first arrived I explained to the person at the front desk the reason why I was there and I told the gentleman I kept leaving voicemails on this lady phone and send her email and no answer when she called me in the back the Rachel A Victor she’s the counselor am referring too she kept saying I always checked my voicemail and email I said well I have been calling nonstop for over two weeks she said well I didn’t receive any voicemail or any email. She kept going on and on to the point I felt uncomfortable and I said it’s ok am here now and I just want to get info how to get started she did ask for my email and send me an email but after that she started going on and on again about she never get any call or email as if am lie in to her. She was very rude and unprofessional to the point I felt uncomfortable I end up leaving and I send her the documents she requested high school diploma ect please to keep in mind I had to home school for personal reason but my mom made sure the school I attended was accredited school i am a former broward college student I also went to nova university for a few classes for my major and I had to provide my high school diploma ect I never had any problems with getting into any school with my high school diploma. Rachel that works for Mcfatter that control the LPN program said my diploma makes me not eligible to proceed to get in the program and she would recommend me to sign up with them too get in there GED program such disrespect I would never recommend this school they don’t return calls email or voicemail take y’all business elsewhere.Tadine Shay

Leaving this review for any student who is interested in taking the Digital Multimedia Class. If you are like me and chose in person learning instead of learning online for a reason, this is not the course for you. The majority of this course is taught online, yes, even while you are in class. When you need help, the teacher will tell you to “google it” . You are better off paying for a LinkedIn subscription and just learning at your own pace. Because on top of teaching yourself (essentially) you also have strenuous deadlines. Which most students aren’t able to make, being that we weren’t actually taught how to do the assignment. This results in a majority of students dropping out, as he will tell you himself. Thought it wouldn’t happened to me but it did. And the real problem is that the “teacher” is simply not teaching. I was highly disappointed. I do think the program is great, I just think they need a better teacher.Chieaynne Henderson

I just graduated from the Surgical Technology program at this school with the instructor Ms.Daise, she was excellent!! There is sooo much to learn in such a short period of time and she was very thorough and prepared us very well for our clinical rotation. She was our sole instructor this time around. I guess in the past they normally have a seperate instructor for clinicals. We did not this time, And I would not of had it any other way. Having Ms.Daise as our instructor made our clincial rotation so much better, everyone at the location of our clinicals couldnt say anything but great things about our class and our instructor. I guess they have had issues with the other "instructor" at the school that we did not. This program was great! The hospital literally wants to hire every single one of us, thats how great this experience has been for all of us! Ms.Daise is the best!! She is the heart and soul of this program, she really cares and loves to teach and it is apparent. She also has the standards for Surgical technology down pat, And doesnt teach short cuts. SHE IS THE REAL DEAL!! I would give her ten stars if I could, and I would give 2 stars to the Health science Office staff… Too many "politics" going on in the office and they care more about their " status quo" then making sure the students have what they need to succeed. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who wants to get into this field!Amy Parraguez

Program: Computer Systems & Information Technology (CSIT) Instructor: Rob Saul Instructor is world class, he often utilized a Socratic style of teaching which was unique compared to just about every other teacher I've ever had. The program exposes you to various technology but the main components are centered around the CompTIA certifications, namely A+, Net+, Sec+. I'd imagine the core learning material is still largely self-paced as you progress towards each certification exam. I was dual enrolled 9-10 years ago but I doubt much has changed aside from the actual certification material being updated every few years These certs are all great for getting into various entry level IT positions..you're probably looking at roles like help desk/desktop support/support technician/isp tech/etc. These certs won't make you a sys admin or network admin, but they certainly lead to those type of career trajectories. Final thoughts: Adults – I'd personally just recommend picking up an A+, Net+, Sec+ CompTIA bundle and going to town. There I just probably saved you a ton of money. You'd gain the same knowledge and can sit for the same certs the program prepares you for, but in a MUCH quicker time frame really. High School Dual enrollers – 100% sign up for this if seriously interested in computers/networking/security/IT in general. You'll be so ahead of your peers its borderline OP.James Whipple

I went to their information session for surgical technician , and just from simply calling and going there I did not like the experience . I do not recommend going there if you want to be a SURGICAL TECHNICIAN. They want you to pay around 500$ before even getting accepted and it’s non refundable, a tour is not included in the session and I saw a review on here that a surgical technician said there was a 20% passing rate I asked the lady and she pretended like she knew nothing about , she just said they had a really bad dropout rate because students “couldn’t handle it” and that’s why they’re making people who to get in a program take a 4 hour long test. As well as a 2 hour long test . I have never written a bad google review but I really hope nobody wastes their money on this program and not even to know if you’re getting accepted . The only good side of this school is that it’s in a nice area and the interior is very clean and nice . Unless you want to share majority of the college with high school students I don’t recommend you going here.Elianna Corona

I have been saying this since I was in school: Somebody had better get serious about educating our young people. The first red flag about this school should have been to me is the bad website from the late 1990s. It's Geocities feel and look and the second red flag "100% job placement" "Reading the fine print on job placement in this school"employed for a least 1 day , It means working in fast food aka flipping burgers " You not going to get a job in the subject that you study trust me.Nearly half of working Americans with degrees are in jobs for which they're overqualified that $30,000 to $60,000 a year is not going to happen.. It more like 16k working at a best buy,office depot or a restaurant working for peanuts. Some of the teacher here are in over their head about what there job is. Its really a shame the way they advantage of people who are only trying to better there lives. trust me how you learn is by reading the book and doing homework and the other students are the ones that help you out. I put that Computer Systems Technology , Information Technology degrees and Commercial Art degrees to good use as cage liner for the dogs. The real crooks in the for-profit education business turn out more "graduates" than the market can absorb. Their victims get lured in, take out federally insured "student loans" and walk away with limited employment prospects and credits that are worthless at legitimate educational institutions.Arale karn-deikun

Lindsay on a whole is the reason why I gave this a 3 star . The teacher I had I like a lot . He knew what he was doing . He made it worth coming to school. The office where you register thoes people act like they don't care about nothing . Almost as if they hate their job. Nothing friendly about them at all. They give you minimal info. Ms . Gray , she runs financial aid . She's a sweetheart . She always on the go . She may look extremely busy at times but she is quick to help a student out with almost any question about your program . And she's pretty funny. But honestly if it wasn't for ms gray and my teacher I probably would have left Lindsey Hopkins a long time ago.kayla pierre

Lindsey Hopkins Technical Education Center is a valuable asset to Miami-Dade county. Lindsey Tech has the potential to be a great institution. I attended the Fashion program in 2012. I recieved my certification from Lindsey, and i'm now attending The Academy of Art in San Francisco, which is rated as one of the best Fashion programs in the world. I can with all honesty say that Mrs. Benoit's Fashion program at Lindsey is world class. She coverd and taught us everything that I am seeing now at the Academy of Art.lebendana

Miss Marva and her team are amazing!! 👏 ❤️ her program is so organized. The best thing about the CNA program is that it's up to 4 students max in the room. So we get allot of attention. Everything is hands on, your really performing each skill in real life. She also gives you access to videos of herself doing the skills u will need to learn to be a CNA and practice tests online that really help you be able to pass your CNA written exam. When u take ur exam u will be testing in the exact same room that Miss Marva taught you in, so u even feel more relax bc u kow where everything is.I couldn't of passed my CNA without the help of Mrs.Marva 😊 so worth what u pay for, u won't regret it! My recommendation for everyone is doing the whole PCT program 🙂yerika zavala

The class was ok ..for the CNA written or online test Portion You are given a book and 3 modules to do at home alone u can’t even ask questions so i don’t recommend if your a visual learner who asks a lot of questions … but i have been waiting for my certification for 3 months now i also don’t recommend if you want your certifications right away like i did . i’m still in the process of waiting for both my CNA AND PHLEBOTOMY big disappointment that i can’t get them i have been waiting to work and i wish this was told to us before we paid in full . nothing more i can do but wait and pray i get a test date for my CNA and my certifications for phlebotomy soon .Glossyshae Love

Each staff member is knowledgeable of the disciplines, glad to help from registration to graduation. All are extremely professional. Classes are thorough and expertly taught. Miss Marva is one of the most encouraging and uplifting instructors. She helps the students believe in themselves and redirects effortlessly when distraction or doubt enters the classroom. Excellent experience! I’ve signed up other classes because I am confident I will be taught well and assisted in learning what I need. Thank you FPTC!Robin Elattrache

the front desk lady was very rude. she has no manners, i said hi and she just said: " write your name on the waiting list", she needs to get some costumer service training. absolutely unprofessional, my experience was the same as someone just wrote below: i just wanted to say it in my own broken english writing but here is what he wrote: (copy and paste) : I walked in to find out information. The staff in the front did not greet me at all. In fact I greeted them and instead of returning the hello they instructed me to sign in. I explained I just have a few questions. The other lady behind the counter raised her voice and said to sign in. Very rude and unfriendly. The other folks waiting noticed the rude behavior as well. I simply just turned right around and walked out. Would never recommend this place to anyone. If they can't even be nice if can't imagine the rest of the staffRafael Degannes

I do not like leaving bad feedback whatsoever but whoever the hell hired the staff at this place is a dummy! Experienced a RUDE welcome and a teacher helped me to the front desk (because i was lost) and the lady in front pretty much yelled at him for speaking before me NOT knowing he was helping me! Super rude and just plain out MEAN. The staff in the front were all standing around not doing a damn thing but gossiping in spanish which they thought I didnt understand probably because the color of my skin but I am 100% puerto rican and understood 100% of what they were discussing mind you none of it was education related. People who come to this office come to learn and grow not to be treated with such disrespect! This place needs new employees. I agree with ALL the negative feedback from this place. Really sad how they are operating such a place!Cydnee Cintron

I took the GED classes for math a few years ago and it was a wonderful experience. The staff, specially the director Chris were so nice and helpful. The best teacher Ms. Herman was awesome. She has so much patience and she really know how help you understand something so hard in a simple way. She was great!!! I would recommend ALCO in a heartbeat. Thanks!!!Monica Cheyne

As an international student with language issues, this college was the best thing that ever happened in my life.. all professors are very friendly and patient…… I would recomend this place to everyoneGabriel Laveso

Generally high quality professors, but low quality administration. Edit: It would be nice if the counselors returned emails. Especially when not a single counselor has any online meetings available.Dillon Christopher

I'm only giving this five stars because one of the registration assistants was amazing and helped get my holds off my account. if you want something done go to a registration assistant.Krystyn Whaley

Coming back after several years I'm really excited!! The school is more organized with different benefits depending on each student situation. The Digital Media/ Multi Media is a compact and complete program I'm happy with my classroom we all get along and help each other. Our professor Percy is very patient and helpful explaining all the lessons covering all the theory part from the book and also making an extra effort to answer all our questions because he cares and wants you take advantage of your time. But what I really! enjoy about the classes is how he challenged us to learn by giving us hands on projects, tips and many different resources. I'm glad I decided to come back and finish the program to be more prepare and continue doing what I truly ❤️Diana Velasco

EXCELLENT PLACE! Both to learn English and to study a technical career. My experience has been wonderful. I am lucky to receive classes in both areas (English and technical). As for English, every day I improve my skills and in the technical career, I feel happier every day. I am currently studying the Digital Media and Multimedia Design career with Professor Percy Ordoñez who is in charge of learning what is necessary to work competitively in this creative area. It´s not necessary to have prior knowledge, since you can learn everything from scratch. I invite you to participate! I assure you they will be delighted!Maritza Araque

I have been living here in USA for almost ten years and I currently study English at the English Center. I have studied at many other schools, but the English Center has been the best. After leaving for six years, I came back to study here for their Digital Design course. I had started this course at another school, however, I had to switch schools. I trust in the teachers and I love employees services. I recommend the school for everyone of my friends.Suzana Vieira Greiner

Disclaimer: I have not taken any classes here, However, I have seen the campus and it is well kept. The labs are well equipped, up kept and generally good quality. Spoke to a student who was a senior for his bachelors in biotechnology and he was extremely knowledgeable about the courses and programs of study related to his field as well as seeming to be fairly intelligent, well educated, and mannered over all. It is a small but pretty campus where I would not mind spending time. The surrounding residential area is very nice as well, with newer shopping centers, a bustling commerce area, well paved roads, and favorable demographics (not researched on this, judging by appearance). The issues I had upon arriving were as follows: the student services office was inadequately staffed. This could have been a fluke because I arrived to campus on a Friday when there are hardly any classes in progress so fewer students on campus. Non-excusable though, was the female student behind the desk who I spoke to about the possibility of transferring there and she was relatively unknowledgable and not helpful in regards to information about courses offered, science related degree programs, nor did she know about the student population of the campus. Continually I was referred to visit the website myself for any information. She didn't even know if there indeed was a four year biology degree offered at her location. I did not speak with an adviser because there were none in at the time. Google actually lead me to the campus in error of outdated information as this campus of IRSC is no longer associated with FAU which withdrew from their premises and affiliation.kasey babee

IRSC has several locations to choose from across the treasure coast areas: stuart, vero beach, Port Saint Lucie West, Fort Pierce…and the campuses are always clean, well kept and beautiful. IRSC has a lot of great resources: libraries, Study Areas, Student Support Services, Cafeteria, Student Organizations, Student Honor Societies, Community Service Opportunities, Career Services, Professional Development Seminars…opportunities for wholesome student life and development. IRSC has great professional Instructors. From my BAS program, they all were helpful, resourceful, and experts in their fields. The materials taught were engaging with mix of audio-visuals, text, and student interactions. I can go on and on. IRSC is a great college to be a member.Moselaine Elan

This school doesn’t answer the phone, and when they do they cannot solve any problems just people bouncing you around to multiple other people who can’t fix anything. I’ve been trying to get in contact with the dean of math (Anthony Dribbens) for two weeks and have yet to get a response. I’m taking a math class at the moment and we take it through mml which marks some answers that are right wrong. But the professor is reluctant to correct it…. don’t go here for math your grades will fall….. and if you need help don’t bother calling or emailing they’ll wait until the end of the term to fail younellywitda 9

Unity was professional, knowledgable, personable, and saved my life. The staff was experienced, kind, and understanding. From the intake process, to the aftercare plan-Unity gave me the start to a new life that I wouldn't have gotten on my own. More than the average rehabilitation center- I learned about my disease through intensive group and individual therapy and neurological exams. I had the greatest medical care, primary physical/psychological/and spiritual. I could go on and on about the activities and true fellowship that was created at Unity. I recommend this treatment center to any one struggling with addition of any kind.Daniella Dangola

I would like to thank the people at Unity Behavioral Health for helping me deal with past painful events and providing me with the tools to win over my addiction. They try their best to accommodate my special needs such as finding an extra therapist to deal with my trauma. They also actively ask clients what they can do to improve their service and try their best to address these concerns right away. The techs especially Sade was kind and willing to accommodate any special requests if possible. Finally I would like to thank my primary therapist Diana for guiding me towards a new life full of hope free of addiction.John Q

Unity behavioral health is the place to go for treatment With it being a dual diagnosis program. My Friday time In treatment, and I have to say they really did a good job with teaching you all different techniques that you can apply to your life in the real world ,With socializing in work ethics Family dynamics , anger management and other recreational activities. The staff is very helpful and understanding and helpful in any situation that u can possibly find yours self in. Thank you unity behavior health for helping find myself when I felt like I had no one. I really appreciate you along with the friendly staff.Miguel HD

I was in the practical nursing department. I had an instructor named Dawn. She never taught us any clinical skills in the lab or in the hospital. She kept talking about weddings and what she thought we thought about weddings. I just now looked her name up eight years later and realize she is a wedding decorator. She was decorating weddings instead of teaching us what we needed to do and she gave us all F’s on our clinicals andSaid don’t worry you have to have an F at first and then it’ll turn into an A. I disagree. All of her students failed exam after exam and I got all A’s and B’s. I began to use the knowledge I learned in the textbook at the hospital. On a couple of floors employees stated “she is awesome. She will succeed.” Dawn wanted to understand why they felt that way. They said all of your students play on their phones but her. She is trying nursing skills. It is a mess. I was thrown out for being late a few times which is understandable however they said I did not have my clinical hours when Dawn for the first month decided that she wanted us to only do clinicals. I had forgotten this detail. They said they had to throw me out because I didn’t have clinical hours when she decided she want didn’t want to do class at all. Dawn Wanted us to only do clinicals for the first eight weeks so I had not missed clinical hours. I really had because Don sat on her computer the whole time. She ended up getting me kicked out and she did not teach anyone anything I hope she’s not still teaching there. She did not even know what MMHG means. Millimeters of mercury. The pressure in our bodies is tested by the way mercury moves. She did not know anything at all and did not care and sat in the hospitals on her computer designing weddings. She never taught us a single clinical skills. She began with 20 students or something like that and ended up with three or four. I am so disappointed as this was my last government grant I could have. I went to SCF and i was given such amazing knowledge in a short amount of time. If Dawn Was terminated I would like to have another chance at the nursing program. Thank you. I am disgusted and hunted this whole time. I was kicked out of the program for a few absences when I did way more clinical hours and exhausted myself so she could sit on her computer. I was too emotionally overwhelmed to let them know hey we did clinicals for 8 to 10 weeks straight because she didn’t like teaching the book. I assume that was because she was called out for her wrong information several times by me and one other woman. No, that’s probably not true. She wanted to sit on her computer and develop her business rather than teach us how to do clinical skills.Bridgette Bianchi

My son was the first class to graduate from the Paramedic Program. He and a few of his friends who had just graduated from the local fire academy were planning to attend a different Paramedic Program however they were constantly being approached by the dept head/instructor of the program at CTC to attend her very first class. Although they were concerned that this was the very first class, they were promised that the program was going to be accredited within a year and that they would be able to take their Paramedic anywhere after passing the National Registry Exam! This we just learned is completely FALSE! My son passed the state exam, worked for 1.5 yrs in the field, just took the National Exam and passed only to learn that the school has not been accredited and has not started the process! We relocated back home to MA shortly after passing his National Exam. 2 very amazing Fire Depts offered him positions which he had to decline after learning his certification is worth nothing outside of the State of FL!!! I am sickened to think of the time and money lost. People that choose this career put the lives of others first. They are brave heroes! In this time when we need more first responders, my son can’t practice! Shame on this school! Shame on the depth head! Please look into this program before committing! You never know where life takes you and you certainly don’t want to be left having do the program all over again!Cherie Fickett

The campus is very convoluted they have the technical college they have the County Public School office they have the main campus they have modular units the buildings are kind of poorly labeled I'm not really sure I'm trying to find the Welcome Center and I'm having a hard time signs that give you directions our place to put their very spaced out and I'm not putting down the school as a whole cuz I don't know the actual School itself but I know I've been turned around twice by the sign maybe it's just me not usually bad with directions but overall the campus Little Messi I've seen some trash grasses and cut good and I know being a technical school there's definitely some kids that can bust out the lawn mowers and weed wackers pressure washers I see some moldy stuff everywhere and being a technical school I know these kids to do it for free but other than that the front of the building looks cool I like the layout and I like the overall shapes and Contours the trees with the Weeping moss and it looks very Floridamatthew greeenwood

(Translated by Google) I learned a lot in Cocoa but they did not have an intermediate level, one level was too basic and the other the teacher wanted to teach high-class English, the best way to learn to speak English is to lose it, the Americans will help you (Original) Yo aprendí mucho en la de Cocoa pero no tenían nivel intermedio, un nivel era demasiado básico y el otro la profesora quería enseñar un inglés de alta categoría, la mejor manera de aprender hablar ingles es perder la pena los americanos Te ayudarányanny robbins

there 1 eays (12 mans) I was student, but not progress. no good program. i go to school evre day, big time, but problema be. I want speak English, I need help. The school do not help. Help me, please! Where me go to speak English?Rock Riba

I graduated from here 2 years ago. They have a staff that's really dedicated to see you pass. The principal is nice as well. ID recommend this to even the young ones.Munir Ayesh

Mr.Martion ( idk how to spell his name) was very rude and unprofessional. Yesterday I took my GED test and lost time because he and a lady in the testing center did not want to attend me. Today I called and Martino was very rude to me and told me I did not lose time because I wasn’t attended( he was arguing with me and rising his voice a bit) but I called a GED representative and they said I indeed lost time because no one attended me before my test started at 1:30….. I was stilling waiting to take my test at 1:35 and still no one came to help me. I only got 60 minutes for my test and I had to guess on multiple questions although I did pass I was not given enough time and got a low passing score when I knew I could have gotten a High score and college credit. this is not the first time I or my boyfriend had problems with him either restaff or set him straight!Snagurr

I only gave two stars because I graduated from the high school side. Outside of my school experience, as a customer their automotive collusion side isn't good. If you choose to being your car there because you graduated from the school (or not) DO NOT take it over there. After they got my car they didn't check everything like the teacher said he and his students did. Plus at a ACTUAL auto shop the workers are NOT supposed to get in contact with their customers over their personal cellphones only through a company phone(don't tell me other wise because I did my research). It's weird/wrong they made me pay about 4000 for things they didn't fix under my hood.Selena Young

I am currently enrolled in the aviation program the program is basically run by no one there’s no organization we sit around doing nothing a lot of the time because they’re understaffed. They have had the same teacher for about 10 years who just currently left and was messing up on documentation and would lose students information moral of the story is this school is a disaster don’t get caught in the trap!!!!!! There just about moneyKyle McKenna

I have taken Certified Nursing, Security Guard, CNA Certification for teaching Spanish and Sign Language . All have been great experiences.Debra Corbett

I attended a breakfast prepared by the Culinary Students attending Marchman Tech. It was an orientation (of sorts) and I was SO IMPRESSED by the Director and her Team of professionals, I spent an hour or so taking pictures of the various programs offered. Highlights: Financing is available, as are grant programs; ABE Adult Basic Education aka GED (high school equivalency diploma) available; Career Counseling available. This is a true gem in Pasco County and a great addition to our education system. The grounds are so pretty and "well kept" Marchman feels like a college campus, NOT A H.S. OR TECH SCHOOL. Please PLEASE let Marchman Tech help you obtain a high school diploma (if necessary) OR training in a marketable skill that you enjoy. I promise you will find gainful employment once you are a Marchman Tech Graduate. Highly HIGHLY RECOMMENDLisa Ann

The Electricity Program is a staple in this community and the teacher and his program is a icon in the Tampa bay area.The Teacher and leader Blake is the best with his approach with students and the industry. MTEC is very fortunate and lucky to have teachers like him who are dedicated to their profession.The program would be like a ship without sails or captain if not for him.I truly can't say enough about him,i had the privilege to attend his class and forever will i be in debt to him.He gave me chance when others wrote me off and help me attain a career and that has truly brought me joy,pride and taken care of me,It's even lead me to become an entrepreneur and to own my own company,it all started back in his classroom!Tru-Line Electric Inc.

About 3 months after I moved to Florida I started taking ESOL classes, after 6 months with Ms. Erin (amazing teacher, patient and helpful) I moved to the GED classes and graduated in less than a year. Ms. Sams, is one of the sweetest teachers I've ever had, I can tell they enjoy their job since they teach with such a passion. I don't change the time I spent there and all the knowledge I got. Always thankful for all they did for me. Marchman Tech. College always in my heart.Mayra PS

From day one departments did not work together to complete enrollment and it took 6 months of diligently calling to start class. This should of been a sign of what was to come. The "teacher" should not be given that title as they are coordinators. You are given a book and left to study on your own all 8 hours of the day. When you don't understand something and ask for assistance from the "teacher" you are told to ask your group. The "teacher" sits in her office all day and does not "teach". In the 4 months of attending the school there has only been one day of hands on training where other colleges do this every day. I have seen so many people come and go from my class either being kicked out for petty things or getting fed up with the lack of teaching or how they are treated. There is no professionalism from the "teacher" as she will talk about things that should be confidential per each student out to the whole class. I honestly feel they get your money and then come up with ways to not have you succeed. Their success rate is stated at 70% but I feel this is incorrect with the turnover rate of so many people coming and going. In my 4 months of attendance I have seen at least 10 people either being kicked out of my class or getting fed up and dropping out. I would suggest to really think and look at other opportunities before considering this school.Jamacan Penney-Vassey

This the best college I had ever attended to from admission, testing room, cafeteria staff, instructors the whole staff is wonderful. The experience got even better with my instructors Mrs.Roberts, Mr. Segreto and Mrs.Collins will make sure you reach your goal and encourage to not stop their. This is the reason why I will attend next year for another program without doubt best decision I had made in a long time..Andreina Arratia

Excellent Instructors and staff. They really care about their students' success and go out of their way to make sure that each person is getting the skills they need in order to be successful in their chosen careers. The staff in Admissions, Financial Aid, and Business Office really work hard to make each person feel welcomed and important. Great place!Kim Frazier

Being in this school is the best choice you can make when you know that you need to learn English for your day to day, they have excellent professionals and teachers, many resources and tools that will help you improve day by day in your English. There are three different schedules that will allow you to work and attend classes without harming you, in fact, you may feel some physical exhaustion when you study and work, but if you give it the priority that it deserves, you will surely have better job opportunities in a short time knowing this language better. If you do not have a car, the bus stop is right at the entrance of the school, in addition, by August 2020 a new building will open where you will have access to thousands of things, not only study English and finally the most important to study English only costs you $ 35 a semester.JC C

AEC is an excellent school, with highly qualified teachers. Its teaching system is effective and cutting edge. It offers ESOL classes, Home Health Aide program, preparation for the GED test, among others. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a school of excellence and above all very affordable. I’m very pleased to belong to this great student community.Nancy Navarro

They have a new principal start a couple of years named Mrs. Gibbons, who is a joke. EXTREMELY poor communication with parents. She made changes to the dress code less than 2 weeks before the start of school, well after most parents finish buying our children new wardrobe. Condescending responses are the norm for this administrator. Events, school function dates, and times get changed on a whim with little or no notice. The curriculum has become so focused on drilling these poor kids on standardized assessment tests, (teach to the test), it no longer resembles elementary school. Kids are mini zombies, prepping, worrying, obsessing about how to take the test, as oppose to naturally learning and teaching. Overcrowding is another problem, several classrooms are not actually in a school building, but instead being held in cheap trailers, you read correctly, cheap trailers. Cramped, poorly temperature controlled trailers, with an array of issues including leaks, pest infestations, and limited access to working technology. Sad to see a once thriving school be reduced to what it is today.Miguel Aquino

Common core curriculum is ridiculous. They are pushing the children too much. They aren't allowing them to be children and there is hardly any hands on material. My kindergartner was spending 45 minutes+ on a computer. This is a 5 year old. How ridiculous. Too much testing and too much time on a computer. I was fed up with it and found Sun Grove Montessori that actually cares about the children. The children learn to be independent and develop confidence. Not like JBE who had destroyed my daughters confidence. At Sun Grove they understand each child learns at a different pace and style. Lessons are customized for you child and how your child learns. The children learn independence, respect for themselves, each other, and their environment. They are offering scholarships to those who need. Don't miss out on your opportunity to give your child the education they deserve! And this is a school that I attended as a child. So very it was difficult for me to say good bye. But JBE or I'd assume most State funded schools have lost sight of what really matters.Nicole Stark

I cannot speak well enough of this school, its staff, educators and Administration. My son is having his most successful year and is very happy because of this school, their competence and their compassion. I sincerely wish he had had the benefit of Jensen Beach Elementary school throughout his elementary school career. I cannot thank these educators enough. Our family is sincerely grateful.Clarissa Campbell
