City College Altamonte Springs (Orlando)

"Ashley Larson has to be one of the WORST professors to ever enter the education field. I honestly believe that there needs to be an evaluation made after each term from every student. If that would of been the case, she wouldn't last a week. This lady gets so many complaints within a term, and yet she's still a "professor". She's a horrible teacher that doesn't care about students needs. That's not even the worst part. This "school" needs to be closed down period. Very unprofessional, money hungry, nor care about student needs. I really beg you all, for anyone who is trying to come to this fake establishment, please do your own research and go somewhere else. I would continue but at that point, I'd be writing an essay. -6 out of 1000. Horrible, horrible, and needs to be under investigation."

"I attended the 2022-2023 Paramedics program. It's a hard and exhausting program but worth it at the end. Had excellent instructors, Kevin, Will, Kianni, Blake, program chair Michael. I had difficulty with medication drips dosage and they took extra time to find ways that I could learn it and feel confident with medication drip dosages. Made friends for life also. :)"

"City College was a great experience that I would do all over again if I could. I enrolled in the EMT summer program of 2023 between semesters of my Bachelor's degree down at USF. The encouragement and enthusiasm from all the staff makes the commute from Bradenton worth it! The teamwork forged between all of us (students and staff) created bonds that we will never forget. Kianni was the BEST EMT instructor (no disrespect to Kevin or Will, they are also fantastic). She has the gift to teach any learning style and BONUS, her music taste during scenarios was perfection✨ to say the least. Michael is an awesome program chair that will be honest/realistic with your goals and will go above and beyond to help you as long as you have drive and commitment to accomplish those goals! This is a community where you can be yourself and have a support system that will stick with you through thick and thin. Overall, this was such a fun program that I will truly never forget and I would recommend to anyone with an interest in the field :)"

"Had great experience, the EMS program Chair Mr. Mejia went out of his way to help the students achieving a their certificate as a paramedic. He is willing to help students to be more successful EVEN if your a waste of space. The program chair takes his time to get to know each and every student and their strong points and weaknesses, to help them achieve their ultimate goal of being a PARAMEDIC. The instructors are top notch, Mrs. Torres is amazing teacher. The way she teaches bring fun and excitement to the classes, by bring unorthodox teaching methods to class. Mr. Mizell is amazing and knowledgeable teacher that is extremely quiet and very professional has always took time out of his days to help accommodate students with extra tutoring and lab practicals. Mr. Barker is a formidable advocate for student success. He uses real life experience of being a paramedic for student learning success. He is a great instructor that loves what he does. The Altamonte campus Director R.J is just an amazing person. He will take his time and correct a mistake/problem that has occurred. He is very approachable and will talk to any student to make them feel more than a student. Had just amazing experience that I am enrolling into the Nursing program to continue my education. If you see a bad review from my former classmates that mean they did not apply themselves."

"To whomever this may be useful to, I attended here 2022-23 for the paramedic program. One of the greatest experiences, with people I will never forget. I drove all the way from Tampa for the quality of education that I had heard about through the grape vine. It was hard and exhausting, but worth it in the end. There will always be people with issues, but they will always be unhappy with everything and never be able to be pleased. Please do not acknowledge the people who have negative things to say. There will always be bumps in the road and obstacles to overcome. How you overcome them is how you grow as people and and communities. This school overcomes obstacles with professionalism, patience, and with no judgment. The community that this school creates is a bond that will be with me for a lifetime. There is one on one instruction, useful and unique teaching techniques, and approachable people. The goal is to be clinicians, not technicians. Human nature not robots. This school does all of these things. Thank you for reading. Special shout out to Campus director RJ, EMS Program chair Michael and the instructors, Kianni, Will, Blake and Kevin. Some of the best people I've ever met and the pleasure of learning from Remember, don't listen to the haters."
