I finished the program in 14 months from zero time, flying at least five times a week. The program requires dedication and hard work. If I ever needed help with anything, the school staff was always there for me. It was amazing to meet people from all over the world. I have formed some friendships that I think will last a life time!

I tried posting this on Google, but they complained and had it taken down. Just to give you an idea…read moreas to how much they did not want for me to expose them and the first-hand experience I had as a PAYING customer. Chief Pilot Rishab is favoring only Indian people. I am a student who failed a stage check because of a single instructor, and did not know why he failed me in the stage check. That particular instructor, Beswin, wouldn't give me a solid reason or explanation and just evaded the question when I asked him directly. When I talked to Rishab, he just sided with Beswin, and dismissed me entirely. It is such a shame when the school is such a beautiful school, that they would be biased, discriminatory, and even showing preferential treatment to their PAYING students by doing this. It is beyond mind-blowing to me that they can just disregard students like this. Your students are how you are in business. Without them, you would have no money, job, or a school establishment. Do not EVER attend here. Stay CLEAR and stay FAR FAR FAR away. They will just waste your money and time, which are your most valuable assets.

This is one of the best flight schools in Oregon, hands down. You will learn a lot about weather, but you will also become a really skilled, knowledgable pilot because if the real world conditions. It was one of the reasons I chose this school as I couldn't get that experience anywhere else. They have a very large fleet of helicopters at Hillsboro Heli and an awesome safety culture. You'll feel supported by everyone you meet, and those who play a part in your direct training from your first flight lesson to your first FAA checkride. Very friendly and supportive staff who will make you feel like you are part of a community! You'll be very satisfied with the decision to fly at Hillsboro as you'll get the best quality training in the industry.

I booked a tutoring session before an Alaska cruise to familiarize myself with my new mirrorless…read morecamera. I've never had any camera instruction, and Mateo was able to cover a lot of ground for me. He listened to what I was seeking to improve, and after running through the basics, he targeted information to my requests, and showed me how to negotiate some of the situations about which I was most concerned- deck motion, long-range zoom clarity, and low light. Even just taking the time to set up and break down my travel tripod was a relief and gave me confidence. Parsing all of the info into chunks made it doable rather than overwhelming. Thanks, Mateo!

I had a big trip coming up and thought "hey, I should learn how to use my camera". I looked up…read morephoto classes on Yelp and My Photo Instructor came up. What an excellent class! I took a two hour private lesson with Mateo. He works out of a bright and airy shared space and we went over all the basics of the camera. You get to fill out a sheet so he can find out what level you are. He went over a lot of material in a very kind and instructive way, so personable and friendly. We went over Aperture, ISO and Shutter speed and even though I probably got every one of his questions wrong, he never made me feel bad about it. I would definitely recommend his classes and private lessons. If you're a beginner, want to brush up or enjoy learning more about photography, he can fine tune it to your level. He's a great professional and really knew his stuff. Mateo also provides great follow up and recommendations. You can tell he enjoyed the subject and wanted to share the knowledge.

The staff and coaches are super helpful. Thank you Thunder Elite for all the great experiences!!!

What a joke of a response…read more Let's revisit what you've done here: 1. admitted to leaving the children without supervision which got my child injured. 2. the responses to the three instances of injury were to not contact us, even when physical damage to her was visible, to "go drink water and get back to practice," and to try to free yourself from accountability of a duty of care to the children. 3. You billed two different cards without proper authorization for either. 4. You attempt to make yourself sound like you've handled the situation but in fact have blamed it on my child. 5. "You would never intentionally reveal any personal information" Except you did, intentionally. 6. Learn what transparency means, it does not mean, I intended to tell you. It means being upfront and honest, neither of which describe the actions you took. Shameful and disgusting.

The Academy offers a low student-to-teacher ratio with a complete range of core academic classes plus various electives. They have made a tremendous difference in my child's life. The struggles she was having in the public schools were more than they were prepared for. Ridicule was beginning because of her falling behind. School was becoming a nightmare for her. The lack of resources available made it a downward spiral. Park has the resources. The knowledge. Teachers that are prepared to handle the needs of kids with learning difficulties. The teacher ratio is a vast improvement. No child is left behind because they are encouraged. They are stimulated to learn and explore.
