    I do not regret my choice of taking my day time sales associates pre-licensing course and... post-licensing course at Premier Real Estate School of Tampa. Ms. Crystal has great knowledge on the matter and she is an awesome instructor. Her way of teaching by breaking down each subject and explaining, really helps to get an understanding of the class. Also, I love the environment and participation of the classmates. I will recommend this school to anyone who asks.read more
