Aloha-
It's official. My prelicensing course is scheduled for February 27-March 9, 2012 at the Maui College. Please go to http://www.edventuremaui.com/catalog.php?courseID=4294, for a complete description and directions to register for it.
The holidays are already upon us with Thanksgiving having come and gone so planning for 2012 is now! Don't miss this chance to take an in-classroom course to fulfill the required 60 hours to become eligible to take the state licensing exam. I do not anticipate giving another course until later in the year.
Hope to see you in class. After you read the blurb, if you have any questions, please email me at carol@carolball.com or comment after this blog.
Mahalo,
Carol

PLAN AHEAD FOR 2012
All systems are GO for a sales prelicensing class February 27 to March 9 next year. So many prospective students call just prior to the commencement of a class or just after a class is held so I thought I would give you an ample "heads up" so you can plan your schedule accordingly. Because of the accelerated nature of the course, students should really have cleared their calendar of any foreseeable distractions, including work commitments. Six and a half hours of classroom time during the day and reading assignments at night leave the students little time for anything else in their lives for this period. But hey, it's only for two weeks and well worth it if you pass the final and then the state licensing exam.
Hope you can make it in February. The Maui College will include the course in the next catalog so be on the lookout for it and sign up at that time.

WONDERFUL CLASS AUGUST 1-12
IT WAS THRILLING to be able to offer the bonus class earlier this month. Although we were out of sync with the Maui College catalog we had a lively group of select students who put me through my paces. They called it boot camp and for anyone who is already in the business reading this, you know that it is nothing compared to what happens after you get your license!
No more classes for 2011 so I can focus on my commitments to the Real Estate Commission. But come 2012, we'll be rarin' to go again. I'll keep you posted as news develops. In the meantime, you can check out the online prelicensing classes at http://hawaii.gov/dcca/real/real_ed/re_ed/prelic.pdf, where they have a list of registered real estate schools in Hawaii and their website addresses.
If you find that you need assistance with the Hawaii portion of the state licensing exam, don't forget about the study guide that I edit for the state portion of the test, the Hawaii Real Estate Exam Book. You can order a download at www.hawaiirealbooks.com.

I JUST DECIDED TO HOLD AN AUGUST CLASS
In response to you who missed my classes and have written me, I have decided to hold another class, my last class for the year, on August 1-12. It will be the same format as the last time, Monday through Saturday, class will be from 9 to 4:30, Sunday will be a take-home midterm. Monday through Thursday of the following week will be the same routine, class from 9-4:30 and the course final will be held on Friday, August 12 from 8-noon. This regimen should prepare you well for the state licensing exam which I expect will be held on August 13. I think that we have the routine worked out so it provides the maximum effectiveness for the result we all want.
Some students have asked about their ability to obtain the books ahead of time so they can digest the information more leisurely. We have found that it is more effective for the students to study in the same order that the assignments are written. The materials will thus be ready a few days before the first class for the students to get a head start on the first assignment. After that, each night there will be a new assignment for completion prior to the class the next day. That way, the students focus on the material, bite by bite, just like you eat an elephant.
If you would like to register for the real estate prelicensing course please call Maui College at 984-3231. Tuition is $725 and materials are $129.
See you in August!

WE HAD A GREAT CLASS MAY 2-MAY 13
ALOHA EVERYONE-
Not only did we have a great class May 2-13 but everyone in the class passed the course! It's some kind of record since that hasn't happened since 2001 when I started teaching this course.
I am trying some new techniques and this class was really into it. I guess it worked because, we did it! Reports are still coming in but 93% of the first time takers from out class PASSED BOTH SECTIONS In the May 14 Hawaii state licensing exam.. Hoo Rah, Good job.
I have received a great number of calls from people wanting to know the date of my next class. Sorry to say, I do not plan on another this year.
That said, there is a possibility if there is enough demand that I might hold one in the fall, if my time permits. Let me know if you want one and I will evaluate the results and my time availability.
Mahalo,
Carol
If you are a licensee on the mainland and do not need to take the education requirement you might be interested in my book to prepare you for taking the Hawaii part of the exam. Go to the website at www.hawaiirealbooks.com

NEXT CLASS BEGINS MAY 2 TO MAY 13
Wow, that was a lot of fun and the class really worked hard. 96% of the class passed the class final and are going on to take the state licensing exam. Some have already emailed me that they passed both the uniform portion and the state portion of the exam. I am hoping that we have 100% passing the Uniform. The state portion is tough and requires intense focus on the wording.But i know that they can do it.
Next class begins on May 2 and will run through May 13. Comment here or email me at carol@carolball.com if you have any questions. You should be able to call the Maui College soon to register for the class.
