ITT-TECH I was one of the teachers you all loved to hate San Diego, California
I was hired by ITT tech to teach English even though I am a lawyer. (The economy...) The school gave me no clue who or what I would be dealing with-- or that the students woud resent even having to take English comp. The book was a joke, but the first quarter I felt I had helped some students who just KNEW they could not write. (I am a published writer-- I can write!) The class size was small and I could help everyone. I was given another class at the last minute and asked to teach it without even having seen the syllabus... that one was ghastly, smart a*s students galore-- but even there I saw some lights go on.
It got progressively worse. They never let me teach the same class twice, expected a TON of extra work, and never made sure I had any authority in the over sized classes. (For $1700 a quarter!!!)
Two weeks ago an enraged student shoved me into the hall. I dont think he meant to but I went down hard and was removed in an ambulance-- then told I was the aggressor and fired. I seem to have a real injury but they will deny my claim and if I file for unemployment they will try to block that, too. My having 30 students in class made them a TON of money-- not a word of thanks. Now this.
I am 60. 5'3" female, and have never hit or attacked anyone, ever. But I have now done some checking and indeed the school is...out of integrity,shall I say? They hired me because I had a pulse and students were flooding in due to the bad economy.
I saw reports with falsified data and other BS but I was there to teach so I stayed. Many of the students do not know how to behave--but the school will not educate them on that, as it might cut off the income stream. Accusing me of starting a pysical fight just about takes the cake, and you can bet this student is still there, thinking what he did will fly in the workplace. NOT!!!!
A few folks may make it, but it's a lot like the "how to be a millionaire" classes-- a few have the knack, but most will just be fleeced.
The fact that they have almost no full time faculty should be a clue. The REALLY LOW pay should be a clue.
And no, the credits are not transferable, and many of the students I saw will NEVER be cops or paralegals... ever, ever ever.
Yes, this IS a rip off.
