Past Student Comments... Please take the time to READ the many E-mails we have received from former students below, if you still have questions please call or email (813) 333-5459 Email: Powers99@TampaBayCNA.com Dear Rev. Arianna- Wow!!! A big thank you for so well preparing me for the CNA test! I took your 8 hr course on Sat Oct 24 (I was the EMT). I took the state test on Monday 11/30 and passed with incredible ease. Your day course, online support and manual made the test a synch. Your skills were incredibly thorough. I couldn't believe the way my testing partner preformed. It was ridiculous and I'm frightened if she is ever my CNA!!!! I'm not sure how, but she passed!!! What is even more alarming, she took the 120 or whatever hour course. I'm very confident in my abilities to perform this job. My intent is to obtain a PT position when i begin Paramedic school in Jan.You obviously know what is going on and how to do things. I thank you for preparing us so well. I'm glad I spent the money, saved the time and made the trip to Tampa for your course!! Again, thank you for helping to make me prepared. TAMPA BAY CNA is Fantastic!!! I hope you are doing well and have kicked off your Holiday Season surrounded by wonderful family & friends (students too?!?!) Best wishes. Thank you, Annie
Hello Rev. Arianna, I passed my CNA Exam yesterday!!! I cannot tell you how "right on point" your program is. I had a very strict nurse too. The first two people had gone through a six week program and they both failed their clinical. Of course I didn't get to watch them to see what they did wrong, but I was getting very nervous. One of those said that it was her third time failing with this nurse giving the test. I am very excited to be a licensed CNA and will be applying for jobs today. I have finished watching all of the videos on your website.Thank You, Kristy T.
Dear Rev Araianna: THANK YOU, THANK YOU for your wonderful class and all the tips that you gave the class for taking and passing the exam. I took the class back in June; but because of all the "stuff" in my life, I did not sign up for the exam until Sept 16. There were nine of us to be tested. THANK YOU, you gave me all the information that I needed to pass the exam. I was amazed by the lack of preparation the other students had. I don't know how they studied or were trained; but they certainly needed more help. THANKS again for all you did for me. You will see my name on the list of CNA's shortly!!! Hilary Dear Rev. Arianna, I took your August 1st Course-Tampa location and took my exam yesterday (9-14-09) and passed both written and clinical skills!!! Thank You so much for the wonderful job you do to get your students prepared, and ready for this exam!! The class is very through, combined with your study handbook, and online study classroom, you have done a magnificent job!!! Im so excited!! Thank You So Much Again, and God Bless you and your work!!!! Sincerely, Sherri Greetings Rev. Arianna; I took your class on July 18, 2009. I wanted to tell you, with great pride, that I passed my clinical and written tests on my FIRST TRY. I truly appreciate not only your hands-on class but also all of the resources you offer on-line. I wanted to let you know that they are very much keying in on the "small stuff" details just like you said. Every person that was at the site to re-test had recently failed for not paying attention to the details. I appreciate all your help and look forward to using your CEU web site for my additional CEU's to renew my CNA License. Sincerely Garrett CNA Hello Rev. Arianna, Thank you again for such an informative class!!! I passed the CNA exam 2 weeks after taking your class and I am so excited. I don't know if I could have done it without the class and the online videos were just icing on the cake. Those really help for the last minute review and to make sure you are confident going in that intimidating testing site. And your CPR/AED class was great too. Your son is just a ball of life and he made the class so much fun. Thank you again. I mean that from the bottom of my heart
Hi Rev. Arianna, I want to thank you for your detailed product. I took your class May 30, 2009. You gave me everything I needed to pass the exam the first time. I passed! Rae Navarre, FL Hi Rev. Christiano, I wanted to share the good news that I passed the CNA exam on my first attempt on May 30. Your one day program and online material is very good and with diligent studying I was well prepared for the exam. Thanks, Annie B Dear Rev Adriana, Well, congratulate yourself and your program on another student successfully passing the state CNA exam! In fact, the nurse said I performed the clinical skills perfectly...something she hasn't seen in weeks! Thanks again for your wonderful prep class. Kerrie E.Hello there, just a quick thank you for all your help... This is Daniel, the EMT in Fort Myers..... not only did I pass the complete test today, but when I was done the nurse said it was like i had it memorized from a book and asked where I trained... and liked that I verbalized to her " palpating for the brachial artery" I will double check that there is no moisture between the toes" and " are you dizzy" I made small talk with the patient about family and visits, and during closing I asked the patient if she wanted the curtain to be left open or closed so she could sleep....
Hi Arianna, I took my test today in Quincy Fl and passed both sections!
Thank you for the great job that you are doing. I don't think I would have passed the first time without taking your great class. When I signed up for your FastTrack Saturday class in January, my expectations were low.
I hoped that I would learn a little something but at most that I had not wasted my time and money driving from Georgia. You exceeded my expectations. Thank you so much! God Bless You! Dear Rev. Arianna , This is Bonnie I'm Writing to tell you I took my state exam yesterday 12/18/08. I was a wreck But I remembered what you said about thinking on my feet and prayed real hard and left it in god's hands there was 6 of us the first 2 came out and they didn't pass that made my nerves raddled even more the girl i went in with went before me she forgot everything the instructor even told her do it don't show me while knocking but she kept knocking on air i felt so bad for her i wanted to cry. she spent so much time washing her hands the two time's she had to that she ran out of time and didn't get to do her 3rd skill but when it was my turn i told god he was driving and it would be as he wanted it I did my 3 skill's as i was tough strange how they just fell into place I messed up but remembered to correct my self I was sure I didn't pass but when the instructor came out and handed us our grade I was truly happy to see that passing grade out of 6 of us I was the only one who passed I also was the only one from your class God bless you and your work and thanks for believing in me when i wasn't so sure of my self I will remember you always and will tell everyone who wants to be a CNA about you and how they can find you! Thanks for all your help and Happy Holiday's Bonnie B. Bradenton FloridaHello Rev. Arianna; I passed! I passed! I thank God I had you as my instructor and found you to be an inspiration, I'm sure I speak for others. I was a nervous wreck, but I called on your gentle, loving spirit and asked for guidance to remember what you helped me learn. Thank you so very much! OMG! I'm still ecstatic! My partner paid over $1000. and this was her second attempt. After brushing my teeth she cleaned up before ensuring my comfort. She was instructed to return emesis basin to drawer since others will be using it. She rinsed it out, then placed it on top of the toilet while she washed her hands...I thought to myself "Oh NO!! She also made comments about how "tiny" I was and that I was a "little something" while weighing me, another OOOPPPSSS!!!! I take it she forgot I was a patient. I felt terrible for her..... Thanks again for being such a great teacher and encouraging your students in other areas of life. Tanja O. Dear Rev. Arianna, Guess What... I PASSED !!!!! YEA YEA YEA! Thank you so much, out of 8 people today only 2 of us passed. I spoke with others who were testing it was obvious that they were NOT taught the same way you demonstrated the skill. I am so happy I passed and chose your training center. Also, the QUICK STUDY GUIDE was so helpful, I took it with me. Some of the other people there noticed that they were not taught the same way, and they failed. I feet sad for them. One of the girls who failed paid $1,500.00 for their class. I was the last one to test and very nervous. Thank you for being such a great caring teacher. Thank you also for the all SAINTS bracelet. I will remember forever what you told us about walking with Saints and our hands touching for God. I will remember you always. Blessings. Cynthia P.Hi Rev. Arianna, I took both my written and clinical skills exams today at XXX. I passed with flying colors. Only 2 other people passed today....one of the people that failed was in with me and she never even washed her hands through ALL her skills, I couldn't believe it. Everyone else was taught completely differently than me, but obviously I was taught much better or they would have all passed. I have you to thank for that. I will recommend you to any and everyone I know that is interested in becoming a CNA. Again, thank you soooooooo much! Katherine Dear Rev. Arianna, I took the CNA test last Friday with six other people who all had some nursing experience. One woman was an RN who was getting re-certified. While we were waiting to be tested, some of these folks took turns going over how each CNA skill should be performed. They were all quick & dirty versions of what you taught. For a minute they had me questioning which way I should perform my skills. I felt somewhat insecure. I made the decision to do the skills just as you taught them, because I felt you were the authority God placed over me to teach me. I ended up being the last person to test. The people who went before me all received a piece of paper containing comments about steps they missed, which they all read out loud to the rest of us. I didn't receive a comment sheet so I located the teacher and asked her for it, thinking she forgot to give it to me. She said she didn't give me one because I didn't miss anything! Thank you so much for your excellent training! I will always remember you.:) Alyce XXX PS. I Passed the written test, as well. Hey Rev. Arianna, I passed! I passed! I passed! Just wanted to thank you for everything. I realized just how thorough and detailed your class was and how much it prepared me as I was awaiting my exam with the other candidates. Some of them didn't even know the most common procedures. Thank you again for everything. Your class is awesome and you are truly a wonderful instructor. Thanks so much, Chery Hi Rev. Arianna This is Carrissa TXXX. I recently took your CNA boot camp and I am writing to let you know that I passed my CNA Board Test. Thank you for all your help! It was greatly appreciated... Thank You, Carrissa TXXXX.
Hi Rev. Arianna! I just wanted to let you know that I took my CNA test this morning in Tallahassee and I passed both parts, and to thank you so much for all your help :) During the test, when I'd read questions, little things that you said would pop into my head and it was really funny to me! Anyways, I just thought you might like to know I passed, and the videos were SUCH a big help to review the skills, they cleared up all my questions and I felt extremely confident going into my CNA exam. Thank you again! Sincerely, Kelly
Dear
Arianna,
I
Arianna, I
wanted
to
let
you
know
I
went
and
sat
for
my
test
yesterday.
Everything
went
well
and
I
passed.
I
had
planned
to
call
you
and
review
some
things,
but
my
week
was
really
crazy
as
we're
so
busy
at
work.
I
reviewed
a
whole
lot
and
ran
through
some
practice
on
my
partner
so I
felt
pretty
good
about
remembering
everything.
My 3
skills
were
the
Change
XXXXX
(piece
of
cake),
Measure
XXXXt
(also
pretty
easy)
and
of
course
my
luck
ran
out
and
I
had
to
do
aXXXXXX.
Not
that
it's
hard,
just
lots
of
stuff
to
remember.
It
was
really
kind
of
funny
(in
retrospect
of
course),
I
was
so
nervous
during
the
test.
I
liked
doing
the
change
of
position
since the
other
girl taking
her
test
was
in
the
room
with
me. Once
she
left
and
it
was
just the
nurse
and
I it
was
really
stressful.
I
did
want
to
let
you
know
what
a
good
time
I
had
with
your
class.
I
really
learned
a
lot.
The
girl
I
partnered
with
took
her
class
at
the
Red
Cross.
It
was
interesting
to
see
how
many
things
she
did
incorrectly
....
she
used
her
thumb
to
do
the
pulse,
she
lifted
me
by
my
shoulders
rather
than
using
the
gait
belt,
she
never
explained
the
"stand
on
1-2-3"
or
asked
the
"are
you
dizzy"
question.
I'm
glad
it's
over.
If you
should ever
need
someone
for
a
reference
for
your
class
please
don’t
hesitate
to
contact
me
as I
would
be
happy
to
talk
to
any
potential
students
you
might
have.
