Most of the professors I have had are terrific-they are knowledgeable and personable.
Hannah from Allentown, PA
i believe lehigh carbon community college is an amazing facility. it's not overwhelming to come here and it's a very nice campus. classes are small and you get to connect with your teachers very well.
Katelyn from Slatington, PA
The professors are amazing here! of course you'll find some that are not your biggest fan. The professors that are amazing really care about their students, and will do anything to help that student for their future. The professors are really there for you, and will do whatever it takes for you to learn the material. I have learned so much from english formats, how to write correctly, criminal justice background, and how to build computers.
Sarah from Palmerton, PA
The teachers here are very helpful and most are fun to have class with, the college teams up with the local art school to give students amazing majors such as Fashion Design and Arts programs.
Pauline from Dryden, NY
Yes I am learning a lot at LCCC, the professors are great.
