Some staff members, including front desk and media staff, speak to children in a way that feels inappropriate and discouraging. I've personally witnessed kids being spoken to in a disrespectful manner. No child should feel uncomfortable in a place meant to support them. The gym is often disorganized and not consistently clean. Practices feel unstructured with a lot of wasted time, yet families are asked to commit to extra hours. Leadership decisions feel unstable, including the move to a new facility. Many families are leaving, and it's easy to understand why. A new location won't fix ongoing leadership and culture issues. This is not an environment I would recommend for children.

I had the absolute pleasure of attending Gold Coast Continuing Education, and I must say, my experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I enrolled, I knew I was in good hands, and that feeling was reinforced throughout my time there. First and foremost, I want to commend the institution for their impeccable organization and commitment to excellence. The registration process was smooth, and the administrative staff were incredibly helpful in guiding me through the necessary steps. It's evident that Gold Coast values its students and strives to provide them with the best possible learning experience. One of the standout aspects of my time at Gold Coast Continuing Education was undoubtedly the quality of instruction. In particular, I had the privilege of being taught by the remarkable Karice Jeffers, whose expertise in the field of real estate was nothing short of awe-inspiring. Her depth of knowledge and passion for the subject matter were truly evident in every class. Not only did she possess a profound understanding of real estate concepts, but she also had the unique ability to convey this information in an engaging and accessible manner. Karice Jeffers had an incredible knack for keeping the attention of the class. Her teaching style was dynamic and interactive, making every lesson an enjoyable and enlightening experience. She encouraged questions and discussions, creating an open and collaborative learning environment that fostered a deeper understanding of the material. Karice's dedication to her students' success was evident in her willingness to go the extra mile, ensuring that each of us left her class with a solid grasp of the subject matter. Beyond the exceptional instruction, Gold Coast Continuing Education offered a range of resources and support to enhance the learning experience. The materials provided were comprehensive and up-to-date, and the facility itself was well-equipped and conducive to learning. Additionally, the staff was always available to answer questions and provide guidance, creating a supportive and encouraging atmosphere. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Gold Coast Continuing Education to anyone seeking to further their knowledge in real estate or any other field they offer. The institution's commitment to excellence, coupled with instructors like Karice Jeffers, makes it a standout choice for those looking to advance their education. My time at Gold Coast was not just educational; it was truly transformative. Thank you for an outstanding experience! read more

I went to Gold Coast Schools, in Tamarac, and my instructor was John Russo. I did the two weekend classes, which was convenient, because I have a full-time job. I have to say, Gold Coast Schools helped me change my life and get on a Career path, as they do for so many people. I'm grateful for this. It is a lot of material to get through, and if anybody is thinking about going for the (215 Life, Health, & Variable Annuity license), I highly recommend being in the classroom. If you are doing it online what happens when you don't understand something conceptually? I wouldn't rely on frantic Google searches. As far as the school, I was happy with all the staff and everything about Gold Coast, but if I had one complaint it is that the bathrooms were absolutely disgusting. I was in this school 6 different days and it was this way every single time. As far as John, my instructor, he couldn't have been any better and I owe him a lot of credit for acing my State exam on the First time. So much so, I felt it was only right I actually wrote a review, something I never do. I got a 92 following every mnemonic device he taught me and structuring my studies the way he recommended. I heard his voice throughout my studying and all the way through my State exam. His classes taught me things conceptually, so being tricked by questions was less of an issue, as long as I remembered to RTFQ and RTFA!!! For those that haven't had him, it means read the full question, and read the full answer. Considering that he had to get through an entire large book in only four classes, I feel he did it in the most efficient way possible. He used well timed humor to keep the class engaged which was totally necessary. He ranks right up there amongst the best college professors I've had. This was something I was worried about when I signed up for these classes. I'd like to add that although I only had one day with Pat Billera for my CRAM class, he was excellent as well. Gold Coast really does have fantastic instructors in my experience. I have a cousin who loved her instructor for the Real Estate license so this seems to be the case. Online is appealing, but do yourself the favor and let a professional teach you this stuff. It is daunting enough as it is! I hope this review finds it's way back to my instructor because he deserves praise from Gold Coast for a job well done. John, if you ever read this, I was your fellow Brooklyn boy, "Abbey Road." Thank You, man! read more

I researched to find what I deemed a 5 star school because I wanted to know the entity encompassed integrity from the front desk to the education. Gold Coast is all of that. I sat in Frances Jarvis's class twice and actually experienced some of my education with Gold Coast online program. Frances possesses complete integrity representing Gold Coast and every one of her students to giving 200% each and every class. She has a strong, vibrant personality & humor mixed with compassion making sure everyone understands what she is teaching. She represents the ethics required by the Department and Commission this licensure requires 100%. Gold Coast and anyone taking her class should feel nothing less than lucky to have had her as a leader. If anyone has an issue or complaint after experiencing her leadership/educational abilities...........you need to take a look in the mirror and be honest with yourself. She never waivers in her passion, dedication and complete detail conveying ALL we need to know to pass the course curriculum. I am truly honored to have had Frances as a leader and love her fire. Gold Coast, the Department of Professional Regulation and Florida Real Estate Commission should be honored and proud they have her on their team. In closing, every time I've called the school for information, questions ect,. each person has been happy, patient and accommodating. If you fail, they are there to help you solve YOUR issues.

This particular Gold Coast School location is highly efficient and very organized. I found all of the employees to be of much assistance, knowledgeable, and on the ball as a whole. Moreover, they are surprisingly flexible and will bend over backwards to accomodate their students. My instructor Marylin Guevara was one of the best professors I've ever had. She shared a wealth of legal know-how and insightful real estate industry experience with our class. She teaches the pre-licensing 63 hour Real Estate Sales Associate course. She is very familiar with the entire textbook, not even needing to refer to the textook during lecture. Plus, she presents the classrom material in such a manner as to avoid common pitfalls and tricky traps when taking the state exam.As a highly energetic instructor, she will emphasize and repeat key points often encountered on the state exam. Additionally, she provides her students with an abundance of actual, real-life, valuable examples from the real estate field. In summary, she does an amazing, all-around job of preparing her students for the state exam. As a student, you simply cannot go wrong with Marylin as your guide. Whether your brand new to the field or a seasoned veteran looking for a refesher course; I would never hesitate in the slightest to recommend her whole-heartedly! read more

Gold Coast is the Rolls Royce of Real Estate Schools. I am glad I choose them for the beginning of my future career in the real estate industry. The Lantana location is convenient, clean and helpful. I took the seven day intense 63 hours real estate associate class. First it is intense. You are given all the information in a precise and concise manner. They give you the right information and help. Now let us talk about the instructor...I had the great pleasure to have Mr. Ray Clemente as my teacher. I should say our class did. He is motivating, encouraging, well versed and makes the long and tough days enjoyable. Who would have thought. Now don't get me wrong it was a difficult seven days but Ray keep us engaged and information coming. Ray is smart, funny and probably the best teacher for anyone. His knowledge is extensive and he helps at all points. I don't think I could have gotten all information in without Ray. Ray you are to be commended for a job well done. If you are on the fence, jump and go straight to Gold Coast. Money well spent. The book is incredible, the staff knowledgable, helpful and let us not forget the online help. All tools and more when you sign up. Everything I needed to pass! And I did! Exceptional experience. EXCEPTIONAL TEACHER RAY CLEMENTE!!! Thank you!! read more

I looked at several Real Estate schools and selected Gold Coast. I completed their 7-day Real Estate Associate Pre-license course in August, taught by Peter Klein, and though I had to wait 4 days to take the state test (no cram weekend, which is included in their tuition) I passed and my real estate career is going unbelievably well. The state test is just NUTS, asking a bunch of questions about information you may never use in your life (unless you are on a Trivia Game Show), or that there seems any need to commit to memory... but you MUST to pass that state test. Peter/GC got a LOT of material packaged in such a way that it was a really enjoyable class, and made memorization of the required material as easy as possible. GC may be a bit more expensive than some other schools, but I looked at every option and I am really happy I picked GC - if you place a value on your time and want the result (to pass the state test the FIRST time), I think GC is your best option... and Peter is great as a teacher - he is active in the industry, experienced, successful, and a sought-after consultant. He has earned the right to his opinion. You could not ask for more. Good luck in RE! read more

"I recently completed the real estate licensing course with Gaspare Lucania and I couldn't be more impressed! Gaspare Lucania is an exceptional teacher, mentor, and industry expert who truly cares about his students' success. His teaching style is engaging, informative, and entertaining, making complex concepts easy to understand and retain. Gaspare Lucania goes above and beyond to ensure his students are well-prepared for the exam and their future careers in real estate. His enthusiasm and passion for the industry are contagious, and he creates a supportive and motivating learning environment. I particularly appreciated Gaspare Lucania's ability to share real-world examples and scenarios, which helped me understand the practical applications of the material. His guidance and feedback were invaluable, and I feel confident and prepared to start my new career in real estate. If you're considering taking a real estate licensing course, I highly recommend Gaspare Lucania! His expertise, dedication, and support will help you succeed and achieve your goals. 5 stars isn't enough - I'd give him 10 stars if I could!"

I would like to use this space to thank and show my gratitude to Professor Yasmin. I took the State Exam and passed the first test, and I can assure you that her voice was in my head during the test. This means that the way she taught us about what we needed was there. Professor José Antonio's traditional classes were also especially useful. I am sure that their work was fundamental to my success in the test. Professor Yasmin demonstrated a didactic that was so effective that even taking the state test more than one after the end of classes, the content was alive. Pay attention during the course, do all the exercises, watch the videos, take the CRAM and review the points marked in the book and all 400 questions from the CRAM before the test that the chances of passing are huge. As the teacher said: "Be careful with the tricks in the questions, read what you are asking for and do not see too much fuss that gets in the way." When in doubt, mark what you have heard before. Success to all. Fernando Boscardin read more

Ms. Frances Jarvis was my instructor, she is an asses to your school, Her knowledge of the Real Estate field is incredible, but it goes beyond her knowledge, Ms. Jarvis is a very respectful, considerate and courteous instructor. Her patience was incredible, she took the time to teach us, and many days, she stayed after the course was finished to make sure some of us understood the materials she covered that day. I personally appreciate her pep talks, and the way she instilled in us the "I can do it" attitude. This time over the weekend for the class test, I had Debra Neser, another asset to your school, Debra is an excellent instructor with an incredible knowledge of the real estate field. I passed with a good score and I want to give credit and thank both of them, Frances and Debra for their guidance, mentoring and help. I'm looking forward to pass the state exam and continue my education with Gold Coast. I highly recommend this school. read more

I recently completed my pre-license course to become a sales associate and had the pleasure of having Gaspare as my teacher. From the start, it was clear that Gaspare is passionate about educating his students. He provided all the necessary tools to not only learn the material and pass the school exam but also to use these tools in real-world situations. Gaspare's teaching style made the complex information required to become a real estate agent easily digestible and understandable. What stood out to me was how Gaspare made learning enjoyable. Despite the vast amount of information we needed to retain in one week, he made each lesson engaging and straightforward. His enthusiasm and dedication to his students' success were evident in every class. I highly recommend Gaspare to anyone looking to pursue a career in real estate; he truly made the learning experience exceptional. Gold Coast School was a great choice and I don't regret it. read more

I was tired of the procrastination and I just wanted to get this over with. I decided to sit into one of the 7-day live course. The instructor I had her name was Marilyn. I didn't know what to expect I was going to decide by going the first day. Let me tell you, I was SOLD! Marilyn's teaching style was amazing and how she explained and broke down the complexities of real estate stayed with me all the way until test day! She was very knowledgeable and has been doing this for years. She was also funny and made the class more enjoyable. I would HIGHLY recommend this school and this instructor. Because of her, 4 days later after the course was over I sat for the state exam and PASSED! Thank you Marilyn and Thank you goldcoast schools of Tamarac! :) read more

I'm normally too lazy to write reviews, but this called for an exception. I chose to go to Gold Coast for my real estate education because I wanted a high chance of getting an incredible teacher, and I got one. Gaspare Lucania is intelligent, funny, patient, and knows how to take a dull or complex topic and tell a story with real life experience that will teach you the material in ways you'll never forget. He's interactive with his classes and cares about each student understanding and passing. His comedic relief and inside jokes brought the class together in a way that we started supporting one another outside the class. He literally never let it go that I admitted I had no idea what a post dated check was, and it cracked everyone up every time he mentioned it To this very day I'm remembered by a post dated check. And I love it. Great person, great mentor, great teacher! Take his class. read more

It's hard to rate the Investment portion of a broker's class "Woohoo! As good as it gets" but know that Gold Coast is a great place to take your real estate classes. Dealing with Lenora in the front office is always a pleasure. That smile of hers.....not to mention how much she and her staff go out of their way to help every student that walks in there. So much so, on the day we took the test, she was back with the group taking us through when we would need to do our continuing education. The classroom environment is good (but bring a sweater!). The teachers do everything they can and then some to get you through the training. Going to Gold Coast gives you the opportunity to bond and network with other agents, really important when it comes to selling real estate. Thanks again, Lenora and Gold Coast.

I was blessed to have had Keith Grandy as my instructor, and I must admit that I NEVER, EVER imagined that a one week, 63 hour class would be as amazing as this one. After completing and PASSING my exam this past Sunday, my study group and I texted each other today saying we were having "Grandy Withdrawal". He is a brilliant instructor that uses the funniest of stories and real life examples to teach us key points. Honestly, it was an ingenious way of keeping the students engaged and made it very easy for us to remember what we needed. He taught me more than I ever expected receive. For those that may think that a 63 hour class will be "boring and drawn out"... think again! I'd take the class again just for entertainment purposes!

Gold Coast is the best school in South Florida, that's something that everybody should know. I took my Real Estate Pre-license classes in Tamarac for a week. Juan Carlos Velasquez was my instructor, and he is great! I think it's difficult to have a bunch of people sitting and focusing in the class for a long time, but he did it. He knew when the students were starting to get tired, so he changed the subject to start talking about any topic related to real estate, like selling houses, investment etc then he went back to the lesson. his classes were delightful... Full of knowledge. If for any reason he didn't know the answer of some question; he said he's going to get it later... And he did it. I'm very glad that I took my Real Estate classes in Gold Coast with him, highly recommended. read more

I took the 63-Hr Pre-License course online and then did the weekend Cram Course Dan Coco and Steve Gaffney. They did an excellent covering the material and preparing you for the exam if you had already done your share of studying. It took me 3 weeks to get through the online course. I went through all the chapter review questions and the 1,001 questions in the back of the book. I also purchased the flash cards and found those to be very helpful with remember vocabulary and concepts. I then took the Cram Oct. 11-13 and took my test 10/19. I was so nervous going into it, but once I started reading the questions I found it to be easy and exactly what I had learned/been told. It took me under an hr and left with a passing score.

If you're looking to get your gun safety certificate, check this place out. This is preliminary to…read moregetting your conceal carry permit. Jorge the instructor was super friendly and informative. It's located inside a martial arts gym. The class took three hours. When you walk in, you sign and waiver and give him your license. After that, you go into a separate room with a projector on. He goes over the components of a gun, how to hold it, and where to point it (and not to point it). He also goes over some of the laws. Towards the end of the class, he took half of the class upstairs. There were 12 of us on a Saturday. That's where the real fun begins. You have to put on ear muffs and safety glasses; this is where you're able to pull a trigger of a 9mm into a canister. That's the first time I've ever pulled a trigger and it was fun. It's loud of course and you could feel the air coming out of the gun. Super powerful! I think people should be able to defend themselves if need be; especially a female who's walking to her car alone at night! This place is pretty cool, you can get your gun safety permit and learn martial arts. After class, we got our official certificates. There was another guy that came in and was selling gun owner's insurance; purchasing it is optional. Check this place out, you won't regret it.

So I went to a horrible nursing school (not naming the name) and somehow graduated in 2019 by the grace of God. Thankfully my mom has known the owner of Brightmed Health Institute for years and recently reconnected with one of them. They have been so helpful in preparing me for the SCARY NCLEX EXAM. I'm able to use their library to study and also go to the NCLEX Reviews they provide. This school really sets a great foundation for their students so they have the right content to pass the state board. If I knew about this school sooner I would've made this my first choice! I definitely recommend this school. They have the LPN, RN programs and more. Do not hesitate if you are interested in nursing. I really like how they are implementing the new guidelines with social distancing and keeping this place clean. + This establishment has been Tamied ®
