Review for Urban Ed Inc, Washington, DC, USA
Urban Ed has given me a second start on life in the sense of having a career. These days and time is it almost a requirement to have a degree or some training above high school. If not for Urban Ed I could’ve never afforded to go to school because I’m a parent and worked 2 jobs, but with the flexible schedule and the one on one time with Ms William I was able to attend classes. This has made a great impact on my life, being able to go out and apply for a job that I actually would like to work for. I don’t just have to accept any job or pay because now I’m considered a professional. This has lifted my spirits immensely, even though I know I’m still considered the bottom of the barrel but if I didn’t have a certificate that I worked for it could be worse. Just the feeling that I worked for this all that studying and making class after work is really paying off. So I tell everyone I know that is having a hard time finding work or a career call Urban Ed. It was a pleasure and still is knowing Ms Williams and what Urban Ed has to offer.
