I love Phoenix College and only have gone for 2 years so far, the community is amazing, the staff and even the teachers all strive for excellency. Everyone understands the idea of getting an education and they all strive to get as good as a grade as they can.

I enjoy going to class in the evening. The teachers are very personable and really care for your success. Teachers are very flexible and do have regular office hours. Class sizes are not larger than 25 students. This college offers classes in person online and hybrid. My experience with the majority of the teachers have been pleasant. Since COVID I have noticed there are less people attending in person, which for me personally is better. There is always parking available throughout the college. I have found that this semester that most of my classes are smaller than 25 students. I have an evening English class that only has about 13 of us. This works for me because that allows us more time with the teacher. It also means we will be participating more than usual in class work. This actually a good thing as you will be able to get to know your fellow students more. The one change that I did not like is that there are not enough classes available for humanities next semester. I feel there are more online classes now than in the past. I truly hope that this college does not turn into an online mainly campus. I do commute from Casa Grande for that same reason. I learn more being in a physical class than on a computer. Everything else at this college I feel is wonderful. They do offer a pantry on Wednesdays for those that may need food items and even some school supplies. Overall I continue to enjoy this school and what it has to offer.

    If I could go back to high school and talk to myself I would give myself a new mindset about college. College is hard only if you make it hard, also financial aid is going to be your best friend basically because they will give you free money. Sure the paperwork is long and hard, but it will all pay off in the end. As long as you do all your work, and study ever so often you will be successful in college. Apply for scholarships because any little money will help, it's better than paying for college out of pocket. Also have fun in college its a life experience that only few people get to experience.

  7. What's the most frustrating thing about your school?

    High school was a very different experience for me. I came to the United States from a foreign country as I was entering High School. I did not speak the language neither did I know anyone at this school. One of the most frustrating parts was trying to make new friends and not being able to speak their language. My own insecurities were keeping me from learning the language correctly and make new friends in this country. I was fortunate to find a theater class in my school that allowed me to break out of that shell.

  20. What is the stereotype of students at your school? Is this stereotype accurate?

    I believe that a stereotype would be that people just get stuck there because they change their major so many times. I would also say it's for the "lower/middle class". I believe that this is true. Out of the many people I have encountered, the most common answer is that they have been going there for three years, even though it is a two year college.
