Called the office manager, Brian, to offer feedback after my first and only driving lesson through…read morethis school. He was repeatedly impatient and cutting me off, becoming increasingly hostile and verbally abusive. Said I was talking "like an idiot", insisted I "get to the point" very early on, and insisted that I should have called with feedback more immediately repeatedly, though I articulated why I didn't call back right away. And it was only 2 weeks later. The Holladay instructor, Ron I believe his name is, was not communicative and I didn't feel safe while on the road. But Brian was temperamental, hostile, and made the whole experience much more painful, with personal insults to boot. I never called him any name, and to be told in a loud voice that you are "like an idiot" is never a good experience. I advise anyone to look to other driving schools.

Getting a scheduled drive can be hard, especially during the summer. For me, getting my drives done…read morewas easy, I scheduled all my drives in march just before it became busy. The instructors are nice and patient of course. Mr.Ling and my other instructor Matthew were nice and I was able to drive somewhat stress free and talked to them throughout my 2 hour drives about non driving related stuff. My tip before scheduling a drive would be to practice driving on roads, unlike a highschool range, they have you get into a car and drive off. I do think if you don't feel confident on the roads you could tell the instructor and they will try their best to accommodate your needs and ease your fears.

This place is absolutely horrific. The whole place is just unorganized and there isn't a way to…read morehide it. The staff doesn't know what they are doing, horrible drivers, and if you have any issues with their website at all then good luck. Horrible customer service and had many issues trying to get through unhelpful lessons. I had to learn 70% of what I know about driving from personal research after the entire course was completed. Absolutely do NOT go to this A-1 Driving School, it is easily the worst driving school in the entire state. If you ask for my advice, just avoid A-1 all together and go ANYWHERE ELSE!!!

First day at the Full Time Full Stack Web Developer program! Checking in now, but will do a full…read morereview once the course is done in 3 months. So far, here are my expectations: - learn a LOT of programming skills - intense days of info overload - build a few apps/websites - make connections with local IT/Developers - begin working as a web developer within a month of graduating Update a few days after graduation: Instead of saying the same thing as everyone else, "the teachers were great, the community is awesome, you learn a lot" blah blah, I figured I would break it down and give detail on everything from my perspective and what I thought of each area. Lecture & Assignments A typical day looks like this: 9:30-12:30pm - Lecture with a 10 min break each hour 12:30-1:30pm - Lunch 1:30-5:30 - work on assignment for the day which is what you learned in lecture I really liked this setup - I learn best in the morning hours, so for me, having lecture first thing was best. In the afternoon everyone typically works in the chapel so you also get to switch up work areas so you're not always stuck in a class room. Homework There's rarely "assigned" homework. Your homework is finishing the project you started in the afternoon, whether you worked solo or on a team. If you did finish the assignment on campus, then it's up to you on how much more you want to work on. I will say this: there's always something to work on. Some people would work on projects until 1am, some people never worked after class was done. This is the part that is up to you - obviously the more you practice the more you'll learn and get ahead, but they also know people have families and other hobbies so that's why you never have to work on anything, Make it your own. You chose the amount you can handle and level of effort you want to put in to the class. Hackathon's There are 2 hackathons, both on Saturdays, and are all day 9-6pm. Each one just tests everything you've learned up until that day before the hackathon. You are put into groups of 4-5 people, are given instructions, then you just work on that app all day. You have to take a mandatory lunch break for at least 30 minutes (I guess Utah law requires a break when you work an 8 hour day), and DPL provides breakfast and lunch. They really aren't bad or scary, they can actually be fun, especially if you are with a good group. At the end of the day, you will present your app to the entire class. The TA's then "grade" your project and they pick one team as the winner from both the full and part time cohort. One of the prizes was a Raspberry Pi. The week that you have a Hackathon end up being a 6-day week so you only get Sunday off. These weeks can make you feel exhausted. Social Events There are 2 social events, ours both ended up being bowling. They are both on a Saturday, typically mid-day. They aren't required, but good to attend so you get to know your classmates and their families outside of school. They are free, and pizza and sodas are provided. Career Services This is a huge area where DPL lacks - there are none. We had a 20 min lecture/presentation on resumes but was very general. It wasn't until the very last week of class that they said we should turn in our resume for review. Here's what I wished they would do: I wish they had a list of all the bootcamp-friendly companies that typically or are willing to hire new grads. I also wished they did mock interviews so that we would feel more confident going into technical interviews. I wish they did some kind of career day event, like have the alumni come back and help with resumes, give talks, help with mock interviews, etc. They always talk about networking and going to meetups, and that's great if you've lived in Utah forever and know a lot of people but for those of us out of state its really hard to connect with the tech community here. Most new grads in my cohort got a job through "a friend of a friend of a friend" and were handed jobs while the rest of us had to put in tons of effort to even get an interview. It really does make a difference of "who you know." We did get to visit on local company and that was nice to able to ask real alums and employers what they are looking for. I have more I wanted to write about but it wouldn't all fit! Feel free to DM me with specific questions! :) UPDATE: I got a job as a Web Dev Intern one month after graduating from DPL!

If they don't have what you are looking for, they will get it in or special order. The used items and new items are priced so well, I don't know how they stay in business. There is no feeling of over paying.

The Other Side Academy is changing people's lives....literally. This facility is full run by…read morestudents and graduates-folks who have made bad choices (self proclaimed) and have decided to turn their lives around. They don't take money from the government or accept insurance and it's totally free for students to participate. (In fact, the longer you stay, you have an opportunity to make money while you're here.) It's not a traditional rehab center-in fact, they don't call it a rehab center at all. It's a home where students commit to live, contribute and abide by incredibly strict behavior protocol for not just months, but years. Their success rate is off the charts and students who graduate from the program are given tools to succeed at life, not just sent on their way. The funding for the Academy is mostly self-funded from their social enterprises (moving company, thrift stores, donut shops, etc.) which are all run by the students. The curriculum is rigorous with accountability and humility as the main theme that runs throughout. It's not for the faint of heart and they don't sugar coat anything, but if people are ready to make a significant change in their lives, this place will help them.
