How We Approach Teaching
Direct Mentorship Model
Rather than lecture-style classes, our instructors work alongside students on real projects. You'll learn by observing professional decision-making processes and receiving immediate feedback on your technique development.
Industry Problem Solving
Every lesson includes scenarios based on actual challenges our instructors have faced professionally. Students practice adapting techniques for different skin tones, time constraints, and client preferences they'll encounter in real work situations.
Progressive Skill Building
We build complexity gradually, ensuring each student masters fundamental concepts before advancing. Instructors adjust pacing based on individual progress rather than adhering to rigid timelines that might leave some students behind.
Program Development Path
Months 1-2
Foundation & Assessment
Individual skill assessment and introduction to professional tools and techniques. Instructors identify each student's natural strengths and areas needing focused development.

Guided Practice Phase
Intensive hands-on work with direct instructor supervision. Students practice on volunteer models while receiving real-time guidance and technique refinement from mentors.
Months 6-8
Independent Application
