Catching up...

As we all know school can be tough. All the hands on practical stuff. All the theory and testing. Practice, practice, practice. We always try to make our students practical time on the floor as productive as possible, and want them leaving our school confident in their full sets and glitter toes and such. But, we also strive to make sure they are on top when it comes to textbook learning and life skills classes. They are just as important. When your clients ask why something is happening to their nails, or why your do one of the steps you do, wouldn't you want to be educated enough to tell them the right answer, and have them look at you with admiration for being the best you can be in your field? At our school we spend lots of time going over this exact stuff. History, Regulations, Diseases, Chemistry, etc to make sure our students are well educated when they walk out the door. As our motto states that we strive to provide our students with the best, this involves going beyond just painting fingernails.

We hit about mid term for our current students, and they realized just how important these book studies are. Hate to say it, but there was a lot of make up tests to do, and study habits that had to be changed to keep our students on top. Our staff has spent alot of time working with these students, which includes many, many extra hours of 1 on 1 time. By doing this though, the students gained a better perspective of what needs to be done to stay on top, how hard it is to catch up, and how much better they do when they stay current with the course and how it can make life less stressful when you do. Our staff is here for the students when they need us, and strive to do what we reasonably can to help them along, but to see the sparkle in their eyes when they see that CAN do it by themselves and CAN achieve great things on their own is priceless!! Thanks girls for putting in the effort to make your lives better and realizing how important it is to do well in these studies. It may be a tough 8 or 12 weeks, but it reaps a lifetime of benefits!!
