Our Qualified Trainers
At Sitting Prettie Academy, practical, hands-on experience is at the core of the learning process.
To ensure that students gain the highest level of proficiency in hair, beauty, and nail care, the academy employs a team of expert assessors who play a crucial role in the educational journey.
These assessors, experienced professionals in their respective fields, initially demonstrate practical treatments for the students, setting the foundation for their skill development
The practical demonstrations are highly interactive, encouraging students to engage with the process actively.
Assessors often pause to explain specific steps, highlight key points, and offer insights based on their own professional experiences.
This interactive approach not only helps students understand the ‘how’ but also the ‘why’ behind each treatment, fostering critical thinking and a deeper comprehension of the material.
