I was in the Veterinarian Technician program the last year Maritime Business College (MBC) was offering it. Would've graduated spring of 2021 but decided to leave because this school gave me so many red flags I no longer wanted to graduate under their name and represent the school.
I am a hard working student that strives to do my best. I do require some accommodations to an extent but I have never let the extent of the accommodations that MBC offered me stop me from being a successful student.
The fact that the teachers are disrespectful and blatantly yell and shame their students for doing things incorrectly is not the way to set students up for success.
I believe that all teachers have their different styles of teaching and approaching different situations and I understand that. I've had some great teachers along the way before they decided to quit because from my understanding , they probably realized that this school's protocols are all over the place.
Not organized in my books.
Not to mention the high turnover rate of teachers we had for the Veterinarian Technician program. I probably had 3 different teachers in the course of the first 3 months of attending the Veterinarian Technician program. (Most of them just unexpectedly left their teaching position)
In the end I decided to quit MBC because I felt like the quality of learning here was not up to par. Step up your game MBC,
Give these students better tools/equipment (such as microscopes that actually work) to set them up for success, teach instructors how to approach their students appropriately and create office hours for those that need extra help.
Kindly,
- Former student
