I am a student at Pacific College getting ready to graduate in 2 weeks. I am now in term 4. I was lucky to have the same awesome instructor for semester 2 and 3. Term 1, the instructor was sweet but couldn't teach a dog to bark (which comes naturally). Term 4 has been an absolute nightmare. The instructor has taught for 10 weeks straight by intimidation, outright degrading remarks, constant negativity, and humiliation. Our class has not heard one positive comment this whole term. She constantly tells us how stupid we are, how we never learned anything and how she has to do it all. She has never lectured, not once. She reads straight out of the book and always says "you should already know this so i'm not going over it." She has taught there for years but constantly tells us that she has no idea what is on the tests. She gives us no guidance at all. She has never prepared an outline to give us any direction. She says all "handouts" are cheat sheets and constantly talks about our previous instructors saying things like "you know nothing because you were given cheat sheets and answers", "i'm here to polish the apples that fell off the tree", "of course you know nothing in clinical, you were trained by a foreigner", it goes on and on. Our entire class is writing everything that she says and presenting it to the Board of Vocational Nursing in the hope that they will do something about this school. We are also sending copies of what we write to all of the accrediting agencies to let them know just exactly what is going on here at this school. Nursing is supposed to be a caring profession. Abusive teachers should not be allowed. When we object to the way she speaks to us and about the other teachers that we have had her response is to laugh and say "I have a vested interest here, they won't ever let me go." I assume she is a silent partner in the organization and has money invested in the school. If I had it to do all over again, I would never have gone here. I have never felt so "put down", "unappreciated", or "emotionally abused" as I have been by this instructor. If you are considering this school, beware, you might have her as an instructor and your life will be a living hell. :nono::nono:
