Reviews From Students

Maria and JT do not hide behind powerpoints or prerecorded video lectures. If you ask a question they're gonna hand draw you an illustration and animatedly explain the answer. Or hand you the tactile learning tool or model you need to master that skill with your own learning style. I experienced a calm, trickling in and sometimes reorganization of a complex medical system or problem. The process was fascinating, as a deeply rooted knowledge base developed that connected my heart and my values and challenged my intellect and critical thinking skills and aligned it all with the cells of my body. I don't know how they worked this magic. I felt energized every night after class.

Nat R. EMT Student

The best class room experience I’ve ever experienced. This emt class was better than any high school/college class I’ve ever taken. Maria and JT are so experienced and find so many ways to make the class exciting. Maria is such a fun person and the energy we had in my class was irreplaceable. It’s not boring and i never dreaded going to class I always looked forward to it. I have taken other emt classes before but the training they offer here is by far the best I’ve ever received. I look forward to taking their advanced emt course in 2024! Maria pours her heart in soul into her classroom and into helping her students. If you’ve ever thought about healthcare and are interested in your emt, I highly recommend taking this class. I passed my NREMT on my first attempt after the training they provided!

Wesley M. EMT Student

I came into this course not knowing a lick of medical terminology, about half way through I started getting the hang of all the medical terminology, by the end of the course I passed my final with ease, this was by far the best schooling I’ve ever had, very thorough and teachers are always happy to help no matter the circumstances. Thank you so much for everything you guys have done for me!

Jayden P. EMT Student

I completed EMT training back in 2017. Maria is an excellent instructor who always came with good energy, passion and knowledge. The EMT program was structured very well and Maria made the material easy to understand. I came with no prior experience in EMT training and I can say that she is dedicated to helping her students succeed in every aspect. Excited to say as an EMT student I..."

Jamila G. EMT Student

Maria is by far one of the most informative, compassionate, and professional EMT instructors I have ever met. She is capable of maintaining a learning environment while making you feel at ease and comfortable with class material. Her personality is phenomenal and bleeds into her educational abilities. I would tell anyone receiving their EMT training from her they’re lucky to have such an amazing teacher!!

Michael R. EMT Student

I did my EMT training back in 2018 with Maria as my instructor. I had zero medical experience and hadn't been to any type of school in over a decade. Maria is very dedicated, approachable and made me feel comfortable in class. She knows her EMT material inside and out; and is an even better EMT instructor. I was always excited to go to EMT class, as Maria knows a variety of teaching methods to..."

Arnell F. EMT Student

Maria Barcena is by far the best EMT instructor I’ve ever known. She is passionate about teaching and truly understands the different learning styles of students. I say this from the perspective of being a former student of hers, then working alongside her as an EMT instructor. Because of Maria’s instruction, I was able to pass the NREMT (EMT National Registry) on my first attempt. I’m now working my..."

Paul M. EMT Student

As a former EMT student, I can not say enough good things about this EMT program. Maria is an amazing EMT instructor with an incredible depth and breadth of knowledge. She has a natural gift for helping EMT students learn, apply, and truly understand the incredibly important information taught in this EMT course. It is obvious that Maria cares a lot about her students’ success, and..."

Arianna I. EMT Student

Maria was my EMT instructor. Currently working as a paramedic. Maria’s encyclopaedic knowledge of physiology & pathophys, matched with an exceptional talent in finding a teaching modality that meets each of her students where they are, and helping them find the avenue to their own understanding, is in my view the touchstone of her pedagogic brilliance. She is an..."

Johnny G. EMT Student

Maria is such an amazing educator and human being that it’s really hard to sum it up into a review - she was my EMT Instructor, & worked tirelessly throughout the EMT program to make sure that she was teaching things in a way that everyone - with any learning style, could understand. She would constantly volunteer her time outside of the EMT class to hold study sessions both online &..."

Taylor R. EMT Student

I went through an EMT program that Maria was an instructor at in 2022, and she tremendously helped make the flood of information easier to digest and comprehend for me and my fellow EMT students. Also Joey and Maria personally helped me through some personal stuff completely out of the kindness of their heart.

Dustin T. EMT Student

The main instructor Maria Bárcena is absolutely incredible! Her teaching style is unparalleled! She was my EMT lead instructor for my 6 month program. She went above and beyond what was necessary to help me in the classroom and in applying the many skills learned in the course. Through her amazing leadership, patience, and vivid creativity when it came to teaching, she helped me..."

Tracy S. EMT Student

I was Maria emt student and I am grateful I had her as an EMT instructor. She had patience and used multiple ways to help me grasp the material. As a former educator making a career change to become a firefighter and going back to school was a challenge but she made things easier by catering to my learning style. She spent countless hours tutoring me when she didn’t have to but she..."

Dalia G. EMT Student

Back when I first started as an EMT when I was 19 Maria Barcena was my first trainer and introduction into being an EMT. Being young an lacking life experience and real job experience when I first trained with Maria I struggled and had a hard time being an EMT. What separates Maria from all the other teachers is that even though I struggled I can still remember how kind and how..."

Christopher R. EMT Student

I can't recommend Guardian EMT enough. Maria, the owner, brings years of experience into her teaching, and it shows. Her deep knowledge makes complex topics understandable, and her patience ensures no student is left behind. Even more, her friendly demeanor makes learning truly enjoyable. If you're looking for comprehensive, high-quality EMT training, Maria's..."

Jimmy P. EMT Student

Hands down BEST training I’ve had. Guardian EMT came to train me and my coworkers. They were professional, detailed, and made the class applicable to your home and work environments. They also taught the why behind the techniques that really made everything stick. I’m extremely confident in my abilities after this training. JT and Maria were fun and extremely..."

Samantha M. CPR Student

Fiercely relevant training! Maria was an excellent instructor and demonstrated tremendous knowledge in her field. Having completed first aid training annually for the last 20 years, I can state the her training was by far the most interesting and enjoyable. Maria explained medical details that provided a more solid and comprehensive training because she explained “the why” behind various aspects of CPR other instructors don’t explain.

Craig T. CPR Student

I was at work when I was expected to do First Aid training. J.T. and Maria were my support in training. They are amazing at what they do and I appreciate all they do, and I appreciate because now I feel like as if I was in a situation I could save a life. They are super kind and explain everything in a magnificent way. I am in disbelief in how well everything was prepared and explained. They are super cool and understanding in training. I definitely would recommend 😁😁

Justin CPR Student

We contracted with Guardian EMT to provide our CPR/AED/First aid training to our staff at our assisted living community and they were exceptional! JT and Maria were professional, organized and very engaging. The classes are very informative and thorough. JT’s experience in the medical field created an exceptional learning environment. The staff is..."

Beacon Crest CPR Client

Excellent Instructors, very informative & Overall a very well put together class. I took my Adult & Pediatric First Aid/CPR/AED course from Guardian EMT this past month, JT & Maria did a great job explaining & showing proper technique in everything. They made sure everyone in the class was comfortable & confident. I definitely walked out understanding everything I was taught & Knowing what..."

Daniella S. CPR Student

J.T. and Maria with Guardian came out to teach my security team members. They offered the best quality first-aid training I have ever experienced. (I am an Army combat arms veteran and have taken many courses over the years.) We covered Assessments, CPR, AED and use. They covered the treatment of adults, children, babies etc. They had the latest train tools and..."

Scott C. CPR Client

We recently hired Guardian EMT to do Employee Training for 14 of our employees and they were fantastic! We had tried a few other companies and never even got called back. They were professional, diligent and very knowledgeable in every way possible. They made learning life saving skills fun, easy, and understandable. They teach the why behind the process and it made all the difference. We will definitely use them again! Keep up the good work!

Peterson Tree Care CPR Client

I had good refreshing knowledge and gaining more experience going through scenarios as being instructed. JT and Marie are great instructors. I would seek their knowledge again. Also its good knowledge to know if any parent has children. It would be better to know what to do for a loved one or anyone in the heat of the moment instead of waiting for someone else that knows
