At first I felt excited and nervous, just because it's a new experience for me.However, Nicole, Blake, Megan & even Ms. Ivann made me feel so welcome! I joined in on a culinary class based on sauces, stocks and soups and the guests did an amazing job. The concept of the volunteer is to guide the guests & just be a kind person in their culinary journey This venue is breathtaking, the kitchen is awesome and the knowledge you gain is so worth the experience. I will definitely be back to volunteer again! The guests made: mac and cheese, green bean casserole, kale soup & an awesome salad with the veggies sourced from their own garden Please take a class! I know i definitely want to!

The Kitchen House is a not-for-profit garden and cooking school that focuses on teaching healthy…read moreplant-forward recipes to adults and children. Ever since Publix Aprons Cooking School closed, I've been looking for a cooking school that has fun adult classes. The Kitchen House has just started a monthly "book club" called Plot to Plate where they feature a book that relates to or includes recipes. This month was Lessons in Chemistry so my friends and I decided to attend. We bought our tickets in advance as classes can sell out. The classes are different prices depending on what the class is. The house is in a residential neighborhood in College Park and does not have a dedicated parking lot so I would suggest getting there early as you have to find a spot along the street. When we arrived, we were greeted and given a welcome drink, in this case Cardamom Decaf Coffee because it was cold out. One of the instructors said that normally we would walk the garden at the beginning of class and also eat outdoors but since it was cold, we were going to skip the garden and eat inside. Once everyone arrived (cooking classes can have up to 20 people), we met in the lobby to start talking about different themes of the book. Then it was time to wash up and go to the kitchen. All the ingredients were set out for us and we picked the Veggie Pot Pie table with other attendees. The instructor gave us some knife skills lessons and then we all started cooking, using the recipes at our station. Each station makes one recipe so you don't get to make everything. And, the instructors and volunteers don't show you how to make everything first (like Publix Aprons used to do). But, if you just dig in and start going, it is a lot of fun. We had some questions along the way, like is there a spatula we can use? Or, is this the flour or the cornstarch? The volunteers were great and answered everything in a friendly way. As it said you could do in the welcome email we received before the class, some folks brought their own wine and the Kitchen House provided glasses and would pour for you. I think if we go back, we would definitely bring our own wine. My friends and I made the drop biscuits for the Veggie Pot Pie, which were surprisingly easy to make. We were finished early so we also make the Brownies for dessert that used olive oil and maple syrup instead of butter and sugar. When everyone was done cooking, we gathered in the lobby again while the volunteers cleaned and set up the table for dinner. Then, it was time to eat! Dinner was served buffet style and the Kitchen House split our food for people who had different dietary restrictions. For example, some of the recipes used non-dairy alternatives as some people in the class were lactose intolerant and one person had a mushroom allergy so they got a small spinach gallette instead of the mushroom Gallette for everyone else. As we sat down to eat, we discussed the book more in depth. Everything tasted great and we had a wonderful time. We received all the recipes in an email after the class so we could make the foods at home. I will definitely be looking at other adult classes here.

The instructors were a great mix of professional but humorous while all being EXTREMELY knowledgeable. They are all passionate about the tech industry and it shows. They can talk at length about the subject at hand without ever seeming to have exhausted their knowledge. The center is very goal-oriented. Take the class; get the certification; use it to get a job. The instructors and staff always followed up when they saw me in the halls to make sure I passed my exams. They seem to take it personally and try to do everything possible to make sure you succeed. Finally, and best of all, the career placement is top notch. Before I had even finished all of my classes, I had a great position at Bright House Networks and have been making progress in my career ever since. All in all, New Horizons Orlando has been a great spring board for my career and success.

Their equipment for labs is top notch and Ive never had an issue with doing my labs. I question the material at times as it doesn't seem consistent with the actual vendor's test.

My employer pays for the classes, so i don't mind using New Horizons, but if it came from my own pocket, I'd probably go with someone else.

I was a CNA in the past, but since it was so long ago, I knew I needed a refresher. I signed up for the weekend course at this facility. I was pleased to see that the class sizes are small. I felt comfortable asking questions and was able to bond with my fellow students. Kamari was a great instructor and Tonya is very knowledgeable as well. Both of them are happy to help you and really work with you to improve your confidence in practicing the skills. As an added bonus, I'm welcome to come back to observe other classes before my exam to make sure I understand the skills properly. I'm able to take my exam here also so I'm happy that I'm familiar with the room. I recommend taking your class here since they offer many time options and have great instructors.

A church for…read moreLutherans The old Lutheran Church is a strange place that is literally swallowed by the much larger and practical new Lutheran Church. It's basically a large hall with a great alter and some beautiful windows. The old church was started back in 1911 when the Slovak Lutherans from Czechoslovakia came to Florida to establish an agriculture colony. They thrived and grew celery as well as many other crops. The church sort of grew along with the community. The main hall and windows have the appropriate morose and spooky feel to them. This was a place that the immigrants came to on Sundays to be closer to God and to seek an ethereal presence to their hard working lives. The stained glass windows aren't elaborate but then neither is the rest of the old church. Just enough to show that this was a special place that deserved something out of the ordinary. I love old churches, especially old Lutheran Churches. All the special Lutherans I once knew are long gone but this old church serves as a reminder of how things used to be.
