All of the teacher's I have had in the past two semesters have been really good. At first I felt like I was back in high school, but it was just a mental thing because that's what everyone said the school was like. Once I started attending classes I knew it was so much different than high school.
Sarah from Oviedo, FL
The college offers a wide breadth of study opportunities and there is truly something for everyone. The professors at the school have taught me both the power of learning, and how to like learning. The college has inspired me to spread my wings in search of new knowledge in various fields outside of the classroom, while at the same time teaching me to appreciate our world from the knowledge that I have learned inside the classroom. Instilling a love of knowledge is something this school does very well, and it is something that takes a lot of care and effort to provide.
Jeremy Waller
I absolutely learned a lot at Seminole State College! Coming into the school I was not expecting to be blown away by the education, but I definitely was. The professors are nothing short of remarkable. They are intelligent and clearly knowledgeable in their fields. Even more importantly they are passionate about sharing that knowledge, which makes learning all the more fun. I was hardly ever disappointed with a class, and I always felt like I was learning. The professors at Seminole aren't just about getting you through with a passing grade, they actually want you to learn and to engage with the material. Their effort clearly shows in how much I was able to take from my classes.
