This review is for the historical marker located nearby at the corner of Front and Mulberry…read moreStreets. Marker M-18 is in very good condition, located at the top of a very tall post. It reads, "Mitchell College. Founded 1856 as college for women. Presbyterian until 1959. Granted state community college status, 1973. Two blocks north." Online, there is more information. "Mitchell College was officially authorized by the Concord Presbytery in 1852-1853 as a Presbyterian female academy in Statesville. However the first school building was destroyed by a storm while still incomplete and construction was halted for nearly three years due to a lack of funds. The college officially opened in 1856 as the Concord Female College." "In the late 1870s the school came into the hands of Eliza Mitchell Grant and Margaret Eliot Mitchell, the daughters of Elisha Mitchell, for whom Mount Mitchell is named. [Reference: https://www.yelp.com/biz/elisha-mitchell-historical-marker-mount-mitchell.] Under their leadership the school made considerable progress, expanding both the size of the campus and the curriculum. In honor of them, the school board of trustees named the college after them in 1917." "During the next two decades, major work was done remodeling the campus buildings and constructing new facilities. In 1932, men were first admitted and in 1959 the college became an independent community college recognized by the State of North Carolina. Today the school offers over 20 associate degree programs, as well as numerous certificate and diploma options for those pursuing post-secondary education."

There's some awful professors here that don't care about your well being at all and will treat you…read morelike literal garbage and you will work your ass off to pass and they will still fail you. For example had a English paper due, had a friend proofread, had the writing center proofread, had another professor proofread it, and then had the literal library to proofread it. Turned it in and presented it. Passed out during my presentation. Re presented it to a whole different class, and moss failed me still. What a clown.

Great school would highly recommend for anyone looking to get there CDLs it's quick and easy only a…read morecouple weeks long

I started paying Trans Tech in summer for CDLA road test preparation ( upon their request to book…read morein advance), including passing score and passing paper for NYC DMV( as their instructors are DMV examiners) totalling $2825. Being a CDLA permit holder had been their requirement for me before joining. I started studying with NYC CDLA permit. For 4 days we were preparing for CDLA permit exam at TransTech and groupmates left studying for DMV CDLA test at DMV office that they could not schedule due to COVID restrictions. After 4 hours and 30 minutes of teaching me exercises for CDLA road test without groupmates( they were still at DMV), they withdrew me from the program without any refund. The judge at Hendersonville small court dismissed the refund back. ( Let's all together come out of shopping mall with unpaid purchases for $2825 and be dismissed!). The director of TransTech told under the bible,in the court, that they withdrew me from school because he had scored me with 1 out of 10. My IQ level is the lowest, so low, just impossible to teach. ( I had seen him 1st time in my life in the court!). Over the phone in summer I was told that they are in Ashville, so I booked a hostel out there. But you cannot imagine how tight Fletcher where the school is from downtown Ashville, every morning at 4am by ebike. Their the only mechanic vehicle ( although I was asked if I preferred automatic) just cannot meet DMV requirements for the test at DMV. Their internal pretrip exam is just about light all around. During break test you should not name any numbers, account for anything, just push in and out! (not according to CDL manual handed out for free at DMV office). Doug with his legs on the table getting me out, another instructor constantly spitting everywhere even my pretrip handout and a female instructor who you cannot ask any questions about what's inside of truck except for light for pretrip test, are ready to prepare to fight high mortality of truck drivers! Before the hearing, they deposited into my card $1600 without any calls, emails...

I have been taking weekly Spanish language classes with Abigayl from Lake Norman Language Academy…read moresince January 2022. The classes are small and conveniently offered via Zoom. Abigayl is very engaging and the classes are well tailored to each level (I've been through a few!). Abigayl is very tuned in to everyone's language level and learning speed, and she makes language practice fun and practical (for example, she'll have you "shop" for groceries at the Peruvian "Walmart" :) ). She engages everyone in the class and makes them feel comfortable. She offers a range of learning resources both in class and for individual learning outside of class. Abigayl's classes are exceptional value for the price. Highly recommended.
