I like tunxis community college because its very local for me and for everyone. They even have a bus line that goes right to and from Tunxis. Its in a great spot. They don't judge you at Tunxis. When I walked into the building on one of the doors it says everyone is welcomed and it had all the signs for straight people, and gay people which I really liked. It showed me that they accept everyone no matter what you are. The only thing I don't like about Tunxis is the parking situation. There is not enough parking for all the students that they have.
Review Tunxis Community College
Each teacher was prepare very good to thier class. They also organize group work and individual, which is very helpful in work place. They also required raports/essay that are base on the real companys/ life. I enjoy also their expirance that they share with students.
I like taking online calsses because it is easier for me to manage my time during the semester. I have a disscustion board where we could talk wbout any problem, get to know each other and post our work. I was nice to see other people point of view. I like that teachers gave us for example 3 days to do a test or quiz because we could pick a day and a time and it was very comfortable.
