Default ATP Experience w/CFI, CFII, & MEI Courses

I am a pilot with about 450 hours. Looking for a way to get time, so I have decided to get my CFI and II(possibly MEI). Planning on getting it Part 61 instead of 141 and found ATP. Has anyone had any personal experiences/stories/anything(?) with ATP either GOOD or BAD? Or any other recommended places that expediate ways to get your CFI/II? Thanks!

You should try various search queries using the search window at the upper left. That will give you a lot more results than running one thread. I would consider the AllATPS in-a-jiffy CFI course if I had no other options and I was pressed for time. From what I can tell they usually produce adequate instructors. They expect you to show up already knowing everything and their program is best described as a finishing school, not a comprehensive training program. So if you are a self-paced learner it will work out fine, study for a couple of months before going. If you show up expecting them to lead you through the whole FAA list of objectives then you will have a very hard time with it and I have seen people bounce out and overspend, they expect you to show up almost ready for a checkride.
