Chicago's Finest Tactics & CCL is an extremely professionally-operated organization that still…read moremanages to maintain a hospitable and friendly environment. Their responsiveness to my inquiries was unmatched by any other CCL sources to which I had reached out. Classes are conducted by CPD Range Instructors - masters in their craft. Not just excellent instructors, but an excellent GROUP of instructors. Their camaraderie and history of shared experiences pull the class together into a comfortable and relaxed setting. Veteran law enforcement officers, competent and knowledgeable in laws and regulations governing firearms, instruct with expertise and thoroughness, adding just the right touch of humor to make every student feel at ease regardless of their own personal level of firearms experience. All instructors were encouraging and hang in there with you from beginning to end! Their attentiveness to each individual's needs and experience level was absolutely awesome! The class was conducted with a "NO STUDENT LEFT BEHIND" objective. Can't say enough great things about this group, from Bonnie at the front desk to all of the instructors: Jack, Ephrain, Chris, Mario, Phil, et al - THANK YOU!

We had a blast and ate like kings during our Tutore Pasta Class!!…read more Bravissimo! Thank you Mollie, James, and Dean for hosting such a great experience! The pacing and instruction were on point. Never felt rushed, lost, or hungry ... Loved being able to ask questions about the class and Italian cooking in general without interrupting the rest of the students or instruction! And lets not forget about the result. OMFG. We made Tortellini! and they didnt look like blobs of pasta! Not only were the recipes absolutely delicious they were remarkably approachable -- enough that they will transfer back to the home chef without any problem. Don't wait, make that class reservation today!

STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCAM UNIVERSITY ::: April 22, 2026 I contacted the financial services employee…read moreI had previously communicated with multiple times during my admission at chamberlain university. I contacted him this day due to not receiving any information about my FAFSA (whether I would receive aid or not.) He replied that it would be early May before they would have my FAFSA results. I replied again asking if he was the right person to be contacting for this information or if it needed to be someone else. I got no response. On May 7th, 2026, (early May) I contacted him again to ask how I would receive the information about my FAFSA. He replied that it would now be the end of May before they knew any information about FAFSA, and said it was due to the "big beautiful bill." I continued to wait, while being enrolled in what I knew were my last two courses before I gained my bachelors degree. JUNE 2nd, I had heard nothing still and contacted him again. No response. June 24th I receive a threatening email from the school financial department about my balance. It stated to reply to the email. I replied. NO RESPONSE. June 25th I receive another threatening email again from the financial department. I reply AGAIN, NO RESPONSE. June 26th I attempted to contact the employee that assisted me with being admitted to chamberlain, she had always been responsive. NO RESPONSE from her either. June 30th, I receive another threatening email from the financial department. (I HAVE NOW FINISHED AND GRADUATED AT THIS POINT.) I again reply to the email address it specifically told me to reply to inside the email. It was returned "message failure / mailer Damon." I send another email but at this point I am fed up. I call a 1800 for chamberlain. When a woman gets on the phone she tells me that she can't see my FAFSA at all and now it's too late for me to do anything about it. I said IVE BEEN TRYING TO HANDLE THIS SINCE APRIL 22ND!!!! No cares given. She forwarded my complaint to someone else whom I have not spoken with yet. When I returned the call I spoke with another employee who could not help and only wanted to forward me to a different department. I sat on hold 34 minutes, left a voicemail, AND HAVE STILL NOT HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED BACK.

I studied improvisation with Steve Ivcich decades ago. I wasn't interested in becoming a…read moreprofessional actor (and lacked the talent even if I had wanted to become one). I took the class just to have an interesting life experience and possibly meet some new people, nothing more. And yet what I learned from Steve has stuck with me all these years later, and I still think about my experiences in his class from time to time. They were that meaningful -- even profound in some ways. That's the mark of a great teacher!

So... I realized something the other day... I actually dove…read moreinto acting because of this guy... I took several of his Professional Program classes and never looked back. Unfortunately I never finished the last class, but wow, as I thought about it, Steven taught method acting like none other. Pure genius. Pretty much in line with the teachings of Stanislavski and Chekhov, but with Stevens' own blend of artistry mixed in! Without a doubt, his classes gave me the drive and ambition to pursue my acting career. And thankfully, I've been involved in some really, really, awesome projects. Thanks Steven! Highly Recommended!!!!!!

We've been to the Old Town School many times, but not for several years now. A close cousin was…read moreplaying, who teaches at the school. We had tickets to see him play. Not reviewing his music (which was fantastic), but the venue. The room we were in was like a black box theater. The room was fairly small and intimate. It was open seating and when we arrived it was pretty full. We were very fortunate that there were two seats open in the third row. The room is acoustically sound (pun intended)... Seriously, being small, they really don't need to amplify the sound, even though they did have a microphone set up. As we were leaving, we got to roam the halls around the school. There were a lot of fun, vintage posters that were a lot of fun to look at. We met quite a few people who either had been students there, or were current students who had nothing but good things to say about the caliber of the educators and the Old Town School. Based on the performances we've seen there of students and faculty, I'd say we agree.

This is a great place to catch a concert as the acoustics are amazing and the price is low compared…read moreto bigger concert venues. Be sure to look at the address on your ticket though as I just put "Old Town School of Folk Music" into my direction app and I landed 20 minutes away at a different place. I'd paid to park before I realized it was the building where lessons are given, not concerts. I drove across town and went into another "Old Town School of Folk Music" on Lincoln Avenue, only to be told I was still in the wrong place. Ran across the street and found my concert, up a flight of stairs, but was 25 minutes late. Prices for a concession stand Coke and a candy bar were wildly high, but I was hungry so I paid for it, plus tip. Seats were small and uncomfortable, like a school assembly hall. But again, stellar acoustics, so a really good experience overall. I'll return, but I'll be more careful with driving directions so as to arrive on time.

Today (7/25/25), an instructor from this company (who I believe is also the owner), removed the company placard from the top of the car, barreled down the middle of a parking lot lane, almost hit me purposely 3 separate times after harassing me, including backing up within a few inches of my car, brake checked me, stopped the car in an alley to block me from leaving, flipped me off with 2 hands while driving the car, and screamed the F word out the window several times--this is all with a what looked to be a young man in the passenger seat looking terrified, no older than 18 years old. It's been about 30 minutes since this incident and I genuinely wondering and concerned that this instructor was intoxicated because that is not how normal people behave...again, with a teenage student driver in the passenger seat.

This is not a half-hearted or amateur attempt to teach kids to rock out; these guys know their stuff and set high standards and expectations for the kids.
