Pre-Requisite: Students must have completed the Esthetics or Master Esthetics course and have obtained the applicable license.


The Esthetics Instructor course teaches students how to be a professional instructor in the Esthetics field. They learn to identify the characteristics of their students as well as different learning abilities. Students will also learn to write lesson plans, design tests, study guides, and worksheets. In addition, they will grade tests and learn how to properly maintain students’ records.


Upon completion of the course, students will receive a certificate of completion, and will qualify to become licensed as an Esthetics Instructor. The state of Virginia currently does not require CEUs to maintain license. The license must be renewed every two years by paying the necessary fee. The school works on clock hours and the total tuition is based on the cost of the course and not credit hours

TEACHING AND LEARNING METHODS

The clock hour education is provided through a sequential set of learning steps which address specific tasks necessary for state board preparation, graduation, and job entry level skills. Clinic equipment, implements, and products are comparable to those used in the industry. Each student will receive instruction that relates to the performance of useful, creative, and productive career-oriented activities. The course is presented through comprehensive lesson plans which reflect effective educational methods. Subjects are presented by means of interactive lectures, demonstration, cooperative learning, labs, student salon activities, and student participation. Audio-visual aids, projects, activities, and other related learning methods are used in the course.

GRADING PROCEDURES

The qualitative element used to determine academic progress is a reasonable system of grades as determined by assigned academic learning. Students are assigned academic learning and a minimum number of practical experiences. Academic learning is evaluated after each unit of study. Practical assignments are evaluated as completed and counted toward course completion only when rated as satisfactory or better (the computer system will reflect completion of the practical assignment as a 100% rating). If the performance does not meet satisfactory requirements, it is not counted, and the performance must be repeated. At least two comprehensive practical skills evaluations will be conducted during the study. Practical skills are evaluated according to text procedures and set forth in practical skills evaluation criteria adopted by the school. Students must maintain a written grade average of 75% and pass a FINAL written and practical exam prior to graduation. Students must make up for failed or missed tests and incomplete assignments. Numerical grades are considered according to the following scale:

93 - 100 ------------- EXCELLENT

85 - 92 --------------- VERY GOOD

75 - 84 --------------- SATISFACTORY

74 and BELOW --- UNSATISFACTORY
