About the tutor

I was always passionate about nails and I had previous experience, so I decided to get a professional qualification to help me with my next step. I completed a level three diploma in nail technology at CPBA. The beauty course went for 17 weeks, part-time at one and a half days each week. I really enjoyed my beauty training. Everyone was helpful and it was just a really good atmosphere to learn in. Once I finished the nail course, I began to work in a salon as a nail technician. I was given the opportunity to teach at CPBA and I have now been tutoring at the beauty academy for about four years and I absolutely love it. I like that I can give the beauty knowledge that I learnt at CPBA back to the students and enjoy watching them learn. I keep in contact with past students too, and always happy to help them professionally when I can.In this beauty course you learn everything you need to know about manicures, pedicures, nail enhancements such as gels, acrylics, extensions and how to use the equipment as well as theories behind working with nails and how to communicate with clients and learn different nail art techniques and design. With my beauty qualification I could have started my own business, become self-employed or worked in a salon. It really gave me plenty of different opportunities to enter the industry.Now, I am the Nail coordinator at CPBA and also the IQA for the naildepartment.
