    My journey with Gurnick Academy was not a straight path. I initially enrolled at the Sacramento…read morecampus, but I was distracted by life and did not take my education as seriously as I should have. I ended up failing during my prerequisite courses, leaving me with a $1,500 debt that I had to repay before I could try again. When I decided to return to nursing school, I carefully researched my options and chose the Modesto campus. Although both campuses were about 40 miles from where I lived, the commute to Modesto felt more manageable. More importantly, the Modesto campus felt like home. The support I received from the instructors and administrators went far beyond academics. They not only taught me how to become a nurse, but how to become a good nurse. Those lessons will stay with me throughout my career and for the rest of my life. My biggest piece of advice to future students is simple: read the books. Do not rely solely on Quizlet or shortcuts. Read the chapters, take handwritten notes, and put in the work. I am not the smartest person in the room, but I worked hard and gave this program my full effort. I want to express my sincere appreciation to Tu, Mr. Bennie, Ms. Laura, Amber, both Stephanies, and Stephanie at the front desk, who always answered my questions and every phone call. I am especially grateful to Stephanie Kelly, my first clinical instructor, as well as Ms. Maria, MJ, Ms. Nisha, and Tina, the nurse at my clinical site. Because of the guidance, encouragement, and support of these incredible individuals, I successfully became a licensed nurse. Today, I am proud to be working as a nurse in San Francisco. Thank you, Gurnick Academy Modesto, for helping me achieve a goal that once felt out of reach.

    I recently completed my LVN program (VN-90) at Gurnick Academy, Modesto location, and I am very…read moregrateful for this experience. The program offers a detailed and well-structured syllabus with excellent clinical exposure. The variety of clinical facilities helped me effectively connect theory with real nursing practice. The instructors are experienced, dedicated, and bring different teaching styles, which made learning engaging and meaningful. I would like to personally appreciate Ms. Mandeep Kaur for her excellent Med-Surg lectures and deep understanding of physiology. Ms. Dawn Hayek delivered outstanding OB lectures; her teaching style, expressions, and clinical insight made her lectures more valuable than textbooks. Ms. Laura impressed me with her energy and experience-based Pharmacology teaching. Ms. Charmaine brought strong expertise in PEDS and NICU, adding depth to her lectures. Mr. Phil Waymire played a key role during MOD IV and Capstone by helping tie everything together. His SIMS knowledge and rationales truly empowered students. I also appreciate Ms. MJ, Ms. Jess, and Ms. Ashita for being kind, supportive, and knowledgeable. The clinical instructors were exceptional. Ms. Antonieta Largoza is thorough and disciplined, ensuring strong fundamentals. Ms. Linda White is passionate and inspiring, and Ms. Alicia Grigsby has a unique teaching style with excellent student camaraderie. Special thanks to Ms. Tu (Director) for her coordination with students, Mr. Benne (VN Coordinator) for always advocating for students and resolving issues promptly, and Mr. Jay and Ms. Brenda (Clinical Coordinators) for their constant support and responsiveness. I also appreciate Mr. Tony (Security) for maintaining a safe and caring environment. Kudos to Ms. Kari, Ms. Sharjani, Mr. Veneet, Ms. Lori, and Ms. Edail Odisho for their continued support. My classmates were caring and supportive throughout the program, and I truly witnessed the nurturing spirit of future nurses among them. As a constructive suggestion, adding tutors with strong clinical and pathology-based knowledge could further enhance student understanding and learning outcomes. Overall, Gurnick Academy feels like a family, not just an institution. I hope the Modesto location introduces an RN program in the future and offers scholarships for continuing students.
