Unitek College Hayward Campus — Attraction in Hayward

Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to read my email, I began the process of bettering my life and my career in August of 2022 when I reached out to Unitek to begin evening LVN classes. I spoke with Jeremiah and many other staff members during my interview process, and was asked extremely personal questions regarding my circumstances to ensure I was the student Unitek desired - little did I know, my disclosures on scheduling preferences and my single parenthood would be used to ensure you all took advantage of me and got money out of my pocket ensuring you would have not keep up your end of the student contract.

I was clear from the beginning of my initiation, I work full time and have a daughter - every one I talked to ensured I would get into a night class within a year and that I needed to enroll in the prerequisite class immediately to not lose my spot. In doing this, and trusting you all I emptied my savings account with the hope of a bright future for my daughter and myself.

I finished the prerequisite class at the TOP of the class - excited for the next steps, I called/texted Jeremiah. He called me a few days after completion of the prerequisite course welcoming me into the LVN next class, which was a full time day class - I was confused. I was so clear on my availability , and was PROMISED I would have access to a class in the evening within the year of the prereq course. During this phone conversation, Jeremiah stated there would be a class in December. December came and went, and I followed up - I was told there was a postponed class for June. Here we are. You promise classes, take people's hard earned money banking that they never get to the next step, without any care in the world.

I am requesting a full refund as YOU are unable to keep your end of the contract. Please contact me with any...

I am writing this review as a new grad from the LVN program at Unitek's Hayward Campus.

I chose Unitek as the location to take on my nursing education after attempting to go through the community college route. The CC route can be long and dragged out as many of the science course are impacted. I knew I wanted to be nurse and Unitek was my express ride to that goal.

Classes were very informative and every class was directed to nursing concepts and skills. This kept me engaged throughout the whole program because the goal of being a nurse felt more tangible because I could directly see how what I was learning would be applied once I finished.

My theory instructor Mr. X was PHENOMENAL. He created an environment that was conducive to the success of his students. His lectures were not only interesting but his passion and knowledge was more than evident. In short, he wanted us to be successful, knowledgable and confident nurses.

My skills and clinical instructor Mr. Singh and Ms. Lisa were incredibly smart and resourceful. Mr. Singh taught clinicals as if we were hired nurses and wanted to be sure we understood how to do things as well as WHY which I think was priceless. He also taught us about the real scenarios that could potentially happen in the real world as nurses that you would not necessarily find within a textbook.

The LVN program all in all was a rigorous program however the school provides resources to each of us as students that would help us be successful. My recommendation to any prospective student is to build a rapport with the people around you including your classmates (i.e. create study buddies and study groups) to help you and use your resources (ATI and ATI textbooks.)

I graduated June 30th, 2022. I passed my nclex-pn in 75 questions on July 26th...

I can't say enough great things about Mr. John he's truly an outstanding teacher. From day one, he has created an environment that’s both professional and incredibly supportive. He has a gift for breaking down complex medical concepts into simple, easy-to-understand lessons, which makes learning not just easier, but genuinely enjoyable. What makes Mr. John stand out is how much he truly cares about his students. He takes the time to make sure everyone is on the same page, and he’s always willing to offer extra help or words of encouragement. Whether it's mastering clinical skills or knowing how to speak professionally, he makes sure we not only memorize the material but actually understand it. His passion for teaching and the medical field is obvious he leads by example and inspires all of us to strive for excellence. Thanks to his guidance, I feel confident, prepared, and excited for my future in healthcare. Mr. John isn’t just a great teacher he’s a mentor, a motivator, and a role model. I’m beyond grateful to have had the chance to...
