TESTIMONIALS
Thank you very much for everything that you’ve done for me, because of the Key classes and instructor George Mifsud, I was able to accomplish my dreams and goals. I couldn’t have done it without your motivation and encouragement. Day one I followed everything you said to do. I showed up every day without missing a class and in the end it paid off and I finally passed the Sergeant exam.
