University of Phoenix-Arizona

I have had several schools tell me that they can give me just as good of an education as the University of Phoenix, but for a lot less money, and I always reply with: I am happy where I am, I like everything and everyone at the University of Phoenix, and I do not plan to change schools. Thank you and have a good day!

Two reasons really drew me into this school. One - I was self-employed when I began going to college doing my own courier service and I was open for business 24/7, which meant I could not have time constraints on when I was or was not in class. Two - I was always one of those kids in high school who paid attention and read the book so listening to the teacher's lecture put me to sleep because it was something I had already learned by reading the book or by watching a youtube video that explained a concept. I am learning so much through University of Phoenix. There are discussion questions every other week where every student in the class is involved in them and by talking to your classmates about a pertinent subject in the class or a concept that everyone is learning, it not only makes you understand material better but also makes you think more on the subject and see how other people view the concept you are all learning as well. As long as you are willing to be your own teacher by actually reading the textbook, and if you don't understand a concept, then youtube a video or google it to learn more, you get a lot out of this college as far as information is concerned. Of course, your instructors are also always available by telephone or e-mail as well and I have, in the ten classes I have taken, never had an instructor who was rude or would not explain a concept for me. All of my instructors have been great at explaining concepts that I don't understand as well.

I have received unique skills out of my college experience; it has equipped me for the possibilities of life and given me reasonable sources. My University of Phoenix experience has showed me that it is important to communicate and receive communication. It has exposed me to many ways of avoiding job-related barriers and convinced me to make it to the finish line. There are so many things and ways to learn with this school.If your willing to put forth the effort to learn than the educational experience will become yours.

I feel like since becoming enrolled in this college I have learned so many new skills and tools to use for my future. Compared to the local community college I was going to, there is so much more information available through the UoP and the material has tought me more in half a year than I learned in two years at a public school.

I remember thinking in the beginning that an online University may not give me as thorough knowledge as a physical campus. All of that has been shot out of the water. I am learning a lot. The classes seem to be thoroughly researched.

Only two classes at a time give you a chance to really soak in the info.

I am learning how to work with many types of people through the internet, which I am sure will be something I can use for the rest of my life.

I am also learning how to do thorough online research. I took this for granted until I started a job where many people did not know all the best ways to make search engines and online libraries work for them.

Most obviously, I am gaining valuable knowledge to help me toward my career goals of becoming a published author and trauma therapist.

Anything post on the OLS is the thing that students need to take a look and learn something from that. Because it contains ideas of the instructor or some friend who is pleased to share that opinion to students in classroom. I have learned a lot from every single discussion questions, assignments, and other things from everyone on the OLS.

I learn very much from each course I have taken or will take here at the University of Phoenix, online. This format of education works well within my personal schedule, whether I am working or away for a few days handling other needs. If a person has interest in educating online, they should try this as it not too overwhelming.

The courses are challenging, and I have learned so much about Java and Communication.
