Testimonials

Before I started taking Prostart, I couldn’t do basic cooking skills. Now after 2 years, I can perform skills I never would have expected I could. Not only did the class teach me to cook but it helped me find a passion and my dream job.

Jasmine Riggs

Being in ProStart has taught me what it is like to run a restaurant and all the possible problems that could occur. Through all the problems we have faced it is the best experience I could have recieved. This class has taught me so many life lessons in culinary and int he real world.
