So far, things have been going very well; teachers have been very nice, helpful and informative. I really like the set up of the Angel web page and I can navigate my way around pretty well. I like the fact that there is a 24 hour service to call in case you are having a problem with finding something for class or helping you with any questions that you have when it comes to the website. Other than that, I am very happy that I chose to go here and everyone has just been great to me!
