An incredible program, making a positive impact in the community. The English Skills Learning…read moreCenter commits itself to providing free English tutoring with trained instructors to immigrants, refugees, and asylum-seekers. 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 signed my daughter up for the BYU gymnastics camp for a week and I was extremely disappointed…read more The first day warm ups were at least 45 minutes and a complete waste of time. On the website when I signed up they specifically stated, "make sure your gymnast can practice for 3 hours!!" Out of the three hours my gymnast danced and jumped for 1 hour and 15 minutes, practiced for an hour, spent 30 minutes of warm up, (she practically was just sitting), then played a game and ate popsicles outside. I'm simply disappointed because the waste of money and effort I spent to get her into this camp was thrown away because of the lack of effort. This is a great camp for 6-8 year olds. Anyone older than that is going to be bored.

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!
