They specialize in practical reading, writing, and speaking skills. For students, they have emerging and intermediate programs, as well as classes that focus on parenting, citizenship and workplace English. In April I attended the ESLC for training to become a ESL teacher. For $50 they provide a 2-weekend training at their headquarters in South Salt Lake; complete with heart-string jerking stories of their students, role playing real-life scenarios, creating a lesson plan and a swanky orange tote bag. The staff and mentors are amazing and I completed the program feeling a lot of responsibility in my new teaching role, but well-equipped and with an ample support system. They also encourage you to sit in on a class to get hands-on experience. The staff at ESLC opened my mind to what a impact confidence in language makes. From a parent who wants to ask questions their child's parent-teacher conferences, to an individual that wants a more fulfilling career.

I needed to finish my 20-hour pre-licensing course by early October so my hours could be banked to…read moreNMLS before my ID got deleted. After checking online, I saw a lot of people recommending MEC, so I went with their course. I didn't want to do in-person or live webinar classes, so I chose their on-demand video course instead. You can pick how many days to finish it -- 3, 5, 10, or 14. I went with 14 days to be safe but ended up finishing on day 12. The system controls how many hours you can do each day, and the videos only have a pause button -- no fast-forward or slow mode, and no subtitles. The platform is pretty strict but smart. If you stop paying attention or switch tabs, it restarts that section and resets the timer. Basically, you have to sit through all 20 hours. Each section has a short quiz, a mini assignment (someone actually grades it), and a 25-question final test at the end. Once I finished everything, MEC sent my completion certificate and uploaded my record to NMLS the very next day, which was super fast! These licensing courses are pricey, so definitely look for a promo code online before you buy. Mine was originally $305.37, but I found a 43% off discount and ended up paying $174.05 -- totally worth it. Overall, MEC's course is good for getting your hours done, but it's not enough to pass the actual test by itself. You'll still need to spend extra time reviewing the book and doing practice questions before the exam.

These reviews are very misleading. Dealing with this company has been a complete nightmare! The…read moresoftware is full of glitches and when you call, you will just get someone reading from a script. I sat through 3 sessions of 120 question quizzies to reach the end and no result! When I called, they stated that I never took the tests. Now, these are just practice tests and there would be no benefit for me to say that they were complete. I just needed to see how I did and where I fell short. Also, until all questions are answered, you cant proceed anyways. Another thing, I confirmed certain answers based on research, and they were marked as wrong. When I called to let them know of the glitch on 10 answers, all I got was a script stating that I was wrong. trying to pass the state exam is difficult enough but to add a difficult program that I paid for make for horrible experience. Please go elsewhere, they are not here to help you pass!

Terrible school…read more They couldn't give me accurate information regarding X-Ray exposure levels and outright lied about the dangers, admitting to lying to patients as well as a means of keeping them from worrying. When I showed several sources of information from leading Radiation and Dental Organizations they said that all those were wrong, that our textbook was wrong as well, and took me aside and disciplined me for asking questions and "wasting class time" regarding the safety of the profession. On my practice hours I opted to work with a Pediatric Dental Office in the same Dental complex, they turned out to be gossiping about me with the people at the school,and conspiring to get rid of me somehow. I'm ex-military, Honorably Discharged War-time Navy Veteran. I'm also a professional Graphic Designer and Photographer, working as a professional photographer since the 80's. I'm definitely not mormon, however, and here's the main problem. While working in the Pediatric office, a girl told me that she was a model and an aspiring photographer. She showed me photos she took, using some sad setup in her garage with house lamps. I said great, I work with a lot of models and have my own studio, I'd be happy to let her use it. I then showed her a single, very tasteful, fully-clothed photo from my latest shoot, the first photo in my phone from a very cool shoot using different color gels in the studio. It was Lingerie, definitely not even see through, and very well done, and can be found on various sites across the internet today with glowing accolades. I have shared it with countless colleagues and coworkers. The "model" was actually just a mormon looking for drama. I'm assuming she was told to find anything to complain about me for. She walked to the front desk and complained that I was showing her obscene photos and wouldn't look at me or talk to me the rest of the day. Another girl there was going to be attending the Dental Hygienist school in Utah County, one of only a handful in the nation that gives you a Full Bachelor's degree upon completion of an accelerated program. I simply told her that I would be interested in hearing about her experience there because I'd been doing a lot of research on the school myself but don't know anyone attending. She was starting in less than a month. She said she'd be happy to give me her contact info so that we could keep in touch and maybe even help each other with school work. I don't think this girl did anything wrong. Rather, I think it was someone nearby who told the same lady at the front desk that I was "hitting on" this girl and "asking for her phone number". The main Dentist arrived and all he did, in front of all the employees, was brag about his mormon affiliations and how he was doing god's work for mormons by going to other countries and helping people, something literally every dentist from a developed world does. The conversation got extremely uncomfortable and extremely zealous & religious. I shared my experiences with doing even more amazing things in the 3rd world, having spent 13 years of my life alone in the 3rd world, and have some truly amazing stories, but they all just simply walked away. Wasn't mormon enough apparently. I was there only one day. The second day, I went to my personal dentist office, next door to the school, for another day of practice and my second day at that office. Immediately everyone gave me dirty looks and ignored me. Literally every one of the staff, people who were very talkative and friendly the previous time I was there now wouldn't even look at me or acknowledge my presence. I tried to initiate conversation with others there on multiple occasions and they simply turned their backs on me and walked away. The owner of the dental office arrived and was kind enough to insist on letting me work on some patients. He obviously came to help a valued customer not be attacked by some astronomical level of gossip and drama. Others were surprised that I was allowed to do anything at all. After that, the school called me and said that they were terminating me from the school program and that I won't be reimbursed my tuition. My non-mormon wife and I were both baffled. It took days of arguing with the school administration/front desk secretaries and a meeting with the school owner to finally just get my money back. I also had to sign some "I'm so happy with the school" agreement. On the school's Facebook page, the owner is one of the 8 glowing reviews. I assume his staff are the other 7. He seems determined to keep people silent, based on the forms he makes people sign. He seems willing to sue people who make bad reviews. We no longer go to my dentist, sadly. And I've definitely given up wanting to work in a dental office in Utah. This school is radical mormon extremists and everything that's wrong with Utah and the mormons. If I could have given it a worse review than 1 star, I definitely would have.

We spent most of the time in the van and when we did stop at the locations, we weren't able to go inside to tour any of them or even use a bathroom at them, we just stood in the driveways to learn about them. I admire her passion for teaching, but we cannot for the life of us figure out how our $3000 was spent. The wine was limited to an ounce every time, and whenever we asked for a second "glass" the lady pouring would say "well we want to make sure everyone gets some!" - the "snacks" were two tiny pieces of cheese inside of a ziplock baggie and there is no place to use any restroom throughout the course of the entire tour... mainly because the tour takes place only in a van and standing in driveways. For $3000, a nice suggestion would've been a charcuterie spread INSIDE of one of the locations with some tastings and every person at that price should at the very least have been able to go home with a bottle of wine from the tour. I give her credit for starting up a creative business in an extremely competitive tourist city, but I can't in good faith allow anyone else to pay so much money to go into this expecting a luxury experience, and end up getting yelled at by a bus driver and having to sneak around an old hospital just to pee. I really liked her as a person and hope she can take this advice and use it to work on creating a better experience for all.
