Our Happy Students
This class was very informational and we were taught by a great teacher. I feel very prepared to start working. My only complaint is we didn’t have enough class hours. The class is only Monday-Thursday but coming to school on Fridays would definitely be more helpful for us learning.
Mrs. Nelson is absolutely the best teacher for this program. I learned so much and was able to go to work no problem after the program. Her teaching style is the best. the class hours don’t deserve to be cut. This class actually matters in the real world.
Having Tim as my instructor for the CDL course at James Rumsey made the experience so much better! I was sad to be done but glad I was able to see myself and my peers pass the course. Definitely a great experience!!
I am so happy to have taken this class because my teacher is able to explain things in a way that is exciting and easy to understand. He is a very fun teacher, and always open to learning from us as much as we learn from him. He believes that every student has creativity and with the right guidance and skills learned here you will be able to do whatever you want in life. This class gives many opportunities and prepares you for more than anyone can imagine. Everything I have learned and built on couldn’t be done without Mr. Morgan.
I have gained a lot of knowledge from taking the Informatics course. My methods of learning and technical skills have become stronger. Informatics has not only refreshed my ability to learn, study, and work with databases, but has also enhanced my writing skills. Informatics has presented me with the tools to be the best I can be, and further my education by providing me with Advanced Information Technology skills.
Entering the classroom for the first time, I noticed right away that this program was professional. Throughout my first year, I started to gain the knowledge of what the IT field was all about. I realized very quickly, that I wish to continue with a career in IT. Even though what I have experienced so far was challenging, I know that I will succeed with the support from my peers and my instructor.
I am very glad I took the Web Deisgn (CIW) and Game Development class at James Rumsey, because I learned a lot of new things and found my passion for working with computers and coding. My teacher was great. He didn’t lecture every day. He told us what was expected of us, and we learned by trial and error. Being in the Web and Game Development class was a great experience, and I would recommend that anyone with a love for technology and wanting to learn how to code and see the unknown side of games and web pages, to take this class.
I’m glad I took this class because it has taught me a lot about what goes into being an engineer. Robotics has given me insight into what I want my future career to be, as well as teaching me valuable information I can use in that career.
I am glad that I have been able to experience and understand that children learn in different ways and need a variety of supportive techniques for them to learn best. I am also pleased that I have learned developmentally appropriate ways to handle less than ideal behaviors that will better guide children to make appropriate choices. Through my experience in this class I have built a tool-box of ideas and techniques to use in my future when I work with children.
Being at James Rumsey in the Emergency Services program has been challenging, but a great experience. I have enjoyed this program because it has helped me understand what it means to serve my community. I would recommend this program to anyone.
