Attending Bellevue has been a fantastic experience! The college is operated by highly respected, seasoned nurses who genuinely care about helping every student succeed. They offer the best training and give you the practical, real-world knowledge you need to begin a career in nursing. Bellevue helps students with placement and is there for you after you start your new career. I've made wonderful friendships at Bellevue. Also, in my class there were multiple family members attending and friends of friends---all because their loved ones recommended Bellevue. When people recommend their loved ones, that's the highest compliment there is.

Mrs. Williams is an exceptional person, she takes you by the hand throughout the entire process before, during and after finishing the course. She is very professional, she has a humorous and fun way of teaching which makes you feel more relaxed. I was lucky enough to take both courses, CNA and CHHA. It was the best decision in my life. She and Mrs. Lopez (front desk) are the best dynamic duo in Bellevue. I'm so blessed ? and grateful to find this college. ❤️ MM

Ms. Williams from Bellevue Career College of Nursing as an exceptional Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) instructor. Having had the privilege of being a student in her class, I can confidently say that Ms. Williams possesses all the qualities of an outstanding educator and mentor.

She shows a tremendous depth of knowledge in the field of nursing, which she expresses with clarity and enthusiasm. Ms. Williams ensures that each student not only understands the theoretical aspects of the curriculum but also gains practical, hands-on experience that is crucial for success in the healthcare environment. Her teaching methods are both innovative and effective, making complex concepts accessible, engaging, and understandable for all students.

Even beyond her teaching abilities, Ms. Williams is deeply committed to the success and well-being of her students. She provides personalized support and encouragement, fostering a learning environment where every student feels valued and motivated to achieve their best. She expresses empathy and patience at a great level. She uses resources even outside of herself to provide us with knowledge and real hands on experience. She staffs compassionate and encouraging teachers ro ensure our success. Ms. Williams is a role model of professionalism and compassion, exemplifying the qualities that are essential in the nursing profession. I would only want to display what she has shown me in the real world.

I strongly recommend Bellevue College for any teaching or mentoring role within the nursing field. I drove over 60 miles to experience this school simply off of recommendation by a previous student and placed no hesitation to sign up based on my first experience touring the school. I respect her decision making and value all feedback she provides me with regarding my education. Her dedication, expertise, and genuine care for students make her an invaluable asset to her students and I would bet almost anyone she comes in contact with. Thank you all for providing exceptional schools/ instructors for us to learn from.

Being able to attend Bellevue has truly been a blessing, iv been out of school for over 5 years and was nervous going in but Ms. Williams is really the best. She takes her time making sure you know and understand all the materials and skills. Because of her and her fabulous team I now have a second career in the medical field. Thank you Bellevue for such an amazing experience!!!

I completed my CNA and HHA training at Bellevue and it was so amazing. The instructors set you up for success and give you more than enough knowledge to pass state boards. The accelerated program is tough, but it's so worth getting state certified in less than 2 months. I will forever be grateful to Ms. Williams, Mrs. Boyd, and Ms. Lopez for showing me the Bellevue way!

I had been looking into CNA programs for a few months, back tracing my steps, worrying I wasn’t ready to commit myself to a program. I reached out to Ms. Williams in December asking if she had any upcoming classes available. She told me of the next class beginning mid-January! I was still hesitant, the switch of career paths is nerve racking and it takes dedication! I came into Bellevue while a class was active, I sat watching them tentatively. I remember wondering: “Damn, I’m going to have to play with these mannequins in front of strangers?” But immediately upon feeling the energy surrounding Ms. Williams and Ms. Lopez, I knew I needed to be apart of their program.
I was laid off of my job the day after Christmas, with no prior intel that I was going to be unemployed, I felt defeated. I didn’t have the means to put myself through school and still sustain my life outside of the classroom. I’d have to put school on the back burner again because life calls time and time again. But it was Ms. Williams calling me a few days before class began, asking if I still wanted a spot in the class. I told her of my situation and asked if I could have a spot in a future class, which she rebuttals with: “would you change your mind if you didn’t have to pay?” Ecstatic, jubilant, I didn’t know how I would make it work but I knew this was an opportunity I couldn’t pass! It was a life-changing the phone call. Class began and I was full of nerves, but my performance was phenomenal. Ms. Williams provides all of the tools her students need to be successful. I excelled as a student because my teacher provided me with all of the keys. Of course, I will admit I am an overachiever, any time I received anything less than an A, I was frustrated with myself.
Even the mistakes you make will be retaught to you until you have full comprehension. The classroom became a second home, where everybody opened up their vulnerabilities, some of us cried, a lot of us laughed, we shared a blissful moment in time. Beginning our year with a change, none of it would have been possible without Bellevue. These educators have the patience and the compassion in their hearts of a million people. They want to watch every individual person who enters those doors and sits in that class flourish. Ms. Williams, Mrs. Boyd, Ms. Lopez, I personally thank you for pouring your knowledge and molding me into the best nurse.
Ms. Williams has dedication and passion like no other, she is moving mountains. Always beaming with light, her energy is motherly and her hands are gentle. She truly educates from her heart, the foundation of Bellevue. You can count on her for anything. Mrs. Boyd wears her humanity like a dress, her honesty and vulnerability is inspiring. We all deserve to see each other as HUMAN without the false facade we share while in public. Ms. Lopez, as somebody who once sat in the same spot as us students, she is the anchor to Bellevue. She shared her experience and offered insight to watch us grow. All of these women put together are crafting a new wave of nurses, passing down their skill to whoever sits in those seats.
It is, was, and always will be an honor to be apart of Bellevue. My heart has been changed forevermore.
