    Poppy is having an orientation flight.

    I am a confident and calm beekeeper because of Paula's mentorship. I knew I wanted to be a beekeeper but I wanted to do a good job, so I took all the classes I could, I read everything I could get my hands on, I joined the The Alameda County Beekeepers Association (https://www.alamedabees.org/) and went to meetings for a year and still felt unsure. Until Paula. I opted for the Full service package - to make sure I had the hands on experience along with expert guidance. There is no substitute for getting into a hive and actually lifting the boxes, talking about what you plan to do and then having to make on the fly decisions once you see what's really going on, and just interacting with the hive with a knowledgable and calm teacher like Paula. It was helpful to see different hives to see how different each one was... but then be able to see similarities and patterns. When I got my split (her name is Poppy) it was invaluable to have Paula there helping me with my hive. I was still nervous about opening the hive on my own and was scared I wouldn't make the right decision but Paula let me run the show, intervening only to ask the perfect question to lead me to deduce my own answer. I was instantly impressed with the respect she showed each of her hives, moving slowly and with confidence but also a humbleness that made me feel at ease right away. She is a giving teacher and an amazing mentor. I feel a part of a community I never knew existed.

    It's easy to get overwhelmed with all the conflicting information out there when you start looking into beekeeping, so finding the right guide, one with lots of local beekeeping experience along with a deep love and respect for the bees and an ability to break down all the "how's and why's" into easily understandable segments is a big deal and it can make the difference between success and costly failure when starting your own backyard beekeeping project. I feel very lucky to have found Paula. She's an incredibly mindful beekeeper, a bee whisperer really and watching her do a hive inspection for the first time was a revelation that changed forever how I approach being around bees. Whether you want to gift yourself with a single visit to her apiary to look inside and experience the amazing sights, sounds and smells of a hive or want to do a series of visits to learn how to become a mindful beekeeper yourself, there is no-one I would recommend more highly. Also, if you want to have bees in your yard to help with pollination and make you honey but don't want to tend to them yourself, she will set up and maintain your hive(s) for you. Paula's a wise and kind teacher and spending time with her in her beautiful bee yard was a life-changing gift I gave myself.

    We have two elementary kids stuck at home -- so visits with Paula have turned out to be amazing science lessons.

    I completed the vet tech program at this location and I enjoyed my time there. All the instructors…read morewere really nice, easy to work with, and were really there to ensure that each student understood the materials being taught. I was in the mid-day slot (11-2ish) which was great because it gave me enough time to prepare for exam, if needed. I loved that our program was small so I felt that each of us got the attention we needed; however, do keep in mind that all programs are different. I am giving it 4 stars because of the fact I had to take some general classes even though I graduated with a BA. Some of the classes they have you take as "additional" classes felt like it was only for the money even though I took the class as an undergraduate in a different school.

    Good luck speaking with the enrollment specialist (JW). This individual does not have any manners…read moreat all. She is EXTREMELY argumentative. If enrollments have gone down, I guarantee she (JW) has everything to do with it. After attempting to have a polite conversation with the enrollment specialist (JW), I have decided to choose a different career path. Unless they replace her (JW) with someone who doesn't interrupt you, while she (JW) demands to not be interrupted. I'm using (JW) because Yelp flags reviews with names on them, but (JW) is the enrollment specialist I spoke with. How can someone so rude be the face of this institution?!

    I would highly recommend this school if you're considering a career in the beauty industry. Flash…read moreback, the owner taught me nails when pursuing my nail license in 2014 at another school. She was great and knowledgeable. Forward to today, I was pleasantly surprised to run into her as the owner of Bamboo Advanced Beauty College. I am looking for an advanced nail course since I got my nail license and haven't used it. The owner offered me a 10 week course three days a week from 10 a.m. till 5:30 p.m. for $2700K which includes my kit. I believe this is a great deal! When you walk into the school you'll see rows of manicuring tables and on the sides cosmetology chairs. Towards the back is skincare which features several tables for facials. Located at the end of the strip center there seems to be plenty of parking on the side of the strip center. I look forward to my adventure with Bamboo and can't wait to get started!

    I've been attending this beauty school and overall it's been such a positive experience. Everyone…read moreis friendly, professional, and genuinely wants to see students succeed, which makes a big difference. I also want to give an honorable mention to Mr. P, he is incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and always brings great energy into the classroom. He explains things in a way that's easy to understand and is always willing to take extra time to make sure you get it. You can tell he really cares about his students and their progress!
