El Centro/ Northlake-----Spring 07

Published

congratulations! to everyone that is starting in january!

i'm so excited to meet everyone-please introduce yourself!

:groupwelcome:

Well....they sometimes change up the instructors each semester, but I would not pick Galloway or Darensburg. I had Mrs. O'Meara my 1st semester and I liked her. Others had Mrs. Stahl and she was ok. Hope that helps alittle.

There really aren't too many options. Once you get your list of choices, you might ask again.

And, the 'nitty gritty' advice should probably be kept to PMs since official type people do read this. :)

Amen to that Jaxia! Are you going to be at the Northlake or ECC Campus? Do you know when your orientation is?

Orientation is in June. I'll be at El Centro. Do they assign you to classes or do you get to pick?

You do get to pick, but the order you pick in is done by a lottery system. You get your choices that day and pick at the end of orientation. I have heard good things about O'Meira (spelling?). However, she's not teaching 1st semester currently at ECC. Galloway is a good teacher mainly because you don't have to worry about what to expect. She's very upfront about everything. I wish you lots of luck, and we're here to lend a helping hand...Lord knows we've relied on a helping hand from those who've gone before us!

Remeber that physiological takes precedence over psychosocial in most cases. ABCs and that is what I used to rank them...what are you dxs and maybe we can better give input...Deep breath!

ABC's of Physiologic DX's, then psychosocial DX's, then teaching DX's is what we were told.

Good luck to all of you!
