I started CPR live in 2009 and I have taught CPR since 2006. I love teaching and consider it a privilege to be able to relay the information to my students on how to save a life! I keep my class sizes small and strive to teach stress free, fun classes, making sure each student receives personalized training and fully understands the material upon completion of their course. My students are very loyal and return every 2 years to recertify their CPR and other courses.

Gracie is such a great BLS CPR teacher— this was my first time renewing my BLS CPR for my OT program, and it was such an easy process. I really like how it was part online (approximately 2 hours if you go through all the required and non-​required modules) and about an 1 – 1.5 hours of lab time, which was SO much more efficient than the last class I took where it was entirely in the classroom. Also, I liked how it was a small class… our class had only 3 people in it, and from my understanding, I don’t think she takes more than 6 people at a time. Small classes are great because you get more help from the instructor. She is super chill too, and definitely ensures that you understand the material. I have already told my entire program about her at CSUDH because she is so good. Overall, I feel very confident in my CPR skills thanks to Gracie. Oh yea, you also get your CPR card immediately after completing the class.

I had my ACLS renewal with CPR Live this year.
Gracie was very quick to respond to my inquiries via email and phone.
The skills testing was quick and painless, there were only four of us at the class and it lasted about 45minutes. You get your renewal card right after the course.
The online course was time consuming though, the case exams in particular were painstaking – I wouldn’t recommend it for first timers who are just getting their ACLS certification. The only good thing is that you can do at your own time at home. It took me about six hours to complete the online course.
The cost is alot more than most classroom courses. I initially thought it would cost $ 170 because on her website, under the ACLS section, it states $ 170 for the class and $ 40 for the textbook – so I thought I would be charged $ 170. But turns out that under her «class prices» section, the online course costs $ 110 and another $ 100 for the skills practice and testing course, so total of $ 210.
Most classroom courses are around $ 100 to $ 140 (for renewal) and takes around 5 hours. The downfall is you have to go on the scheduled time available.
There’s really nothing bad about CPR live. It does cost more but you pay extra for the online course and the convenience of doing it on you own time, but I personally feel that it takes much longer (time spent on online course+skills testing) than a classroom course. I would probably not do this again since I would rather pay less and spend overall less time on my renewal. Just know your preferences.

Gracie is a great instructor. She created a low-​stress atmosphere that was very helpful for me, as it was my first time taking an ACLS course. Thank you very much. I will be back for my re-​certification!

Today was my third time re-​certifying my BLS with Gracie and as always I enjoyed her class immensely. The class itself comprises of two portions. Part 1 is the online content that is provided by the AHA website. The information is presented in a way that is very easy to understand and I loved the audio button where you can click and the content is read to you. You can review the online portion in your own time which is great. After going over all the content, you then have to take a 25 question quiz.
Part 2 is the class with Gracie where you go over what you had learned during the online portion. Gracie is very personable and informative. While performing CPR on the mannequins you are doing so along with your other classmates and aren’t singled out, however Gracie keeps an eye one everyone to make sure you have the skills down. She instructs you in a way that is critical but not a criticism and you feel at ease instead of feeling nervous.
I have only ever taken one other CPR class other than Gracie’s which was in Long Beach for ACLS certification, only because my friend recommended it and it was cheaper than most other classes available in the area. Needless to say I passed the practical and got 25⁄25 correct on the written, but I did not like the class as much as I liked Gracie’s class. The class was drawn out, we were forced to watch videos that we had already watched during the online portion, and when it came to the practical with the defibrillator I felt rushed and not confident that I was performing to the best of my ability. I also didn’t feel like I retained the information very well afterward either. Once I have to renew my ACLS, I am definitely going to Gracie.

In order to take an EMT-​B course, I realized I would have to get an AHA CPR certification. I was so glad to have made my appointment with Gracie, as she so kindly pointed out that I needed to get the BLS certification and Healthcare Provider’s Card instead, in this instance. She also put me down on the same day I had registered, even if I wasn’t getting the same certification I had originally signed up for.
As a first-​timer, learning CPR, the 2010 AHA guidelines, AED rules and regulations, and BLS functions was a breeze, both through the online practice text and test, and in person through the skills test on manikens. Gracie was a brilliant instructor who was very knowledgeable and gave us valuable input for this area — and even some tips specified toward EMT on-​the-​job.
In two years time, when my re-​certification is up, I would love to return to Gracie. I will surely be recommending this instructor to anyone else interested in BLS, CPR, and the like.

Needed a BLS recertification super stat and Gracie was the only one who was able to add me to one of her classes the very next day. The best thing about this class was that Gracie creates an atmosphere of learning and she puts you such at ease that you barely remember she is testing you!
Gracie also is very knowledgeable and was able to answer all the questions I had. She actually explains to you why its 15:2 for child, and not adults, on a 2 partner rescue. If you know why you are doing something, it is so much easier to remember! You can tell she really cares about teaching people how to save lives and made sure all of us were able complete the tasks in the class so that we can later use them to the maximum benefit. Like someone said in another review, she goes over the steps of all the possible scenarios with the mannequins beforehand. She also gave good tips and tricks on the correct way to do rescue breathing and chest compressions.
But the best thing about taking a class with her, she will send you an email reminder one month before your CPR card expires!

This is the 2nd time I have recertified my BLS with Gracie. I like the new format of studying the written part at your own pace on the computer. The written test is on the computer also. The 2nd part of the test is in a small class format. There is a chance to practice on the mannequins before the testing and Gracie is a good instructor. I felt it was a good learning experience. The CPR instructions continue to evolve and change every few years. It is a challenge to keep up to date.

I was searching the internet for a CPR course to take that is American Heart Association approved and found CPRLive. I took the course online which was great because I was able to do it at my pace and at home not in a classroom atmosphere. I called CPRLive to take the hands on class and was able to schedule it for the next day. The class size was small and the material reviewed was appropriate and easy to understand. I would definitely recommend CPRLive to anyone who needs to take the course for the first time or as renewal. I will definitely go back in two years.

Gracie is a super instructor. I’ve taken classroom training classes before and will never go back after having experienced CPR LIVE and Gracie.
The first part of the class in on line; you get to read the material and take the exam at your own pace when it’s convenient for you. The second part of the exam is done in person. Gracie wants you to be successful, so she reviews the techniques, answers questions, and perfects your technique if needed.
Gracie is knowledgeable and professional. I highly recommend her course.

This was my second time going to Gracie since becoming BLS certified. She is an awesome instructor. The first portion of the class is online at your own pace, and the second part is the test that is done in person. She makes you feel comfortable, makes sure you know how to do it correctly and has a sense of humor. I also like how she doesn’t put you on the spot like some instructors would. It’s better to learn with no stress and not being afraid of messing up. I will definitely keep going to her as long as she stays around!
