What our students have to say…

Well structured, clear, and easy to follow

lauren

I was bought this Nail course as a birthday present and it has really inspired me as I have always had a passion for Nail design.

This course was well structured, clear, and easy to follow. It ran smoothly and I knew exactly how long I was expected to work on each module.

I learnt all about the business side to the salon as well as physical skills and it was easy to do the exams and get my certificate. I would thoroughly recommend this course or similar ones to other people as it was so flexible and I can now take my new skills straight into the working world.

Lauren Dean – Southampton

Extremely easy to follow

Louisa

This course is brilliant! Extremely easy to follow and understand. You are able to do it in your own time so there’s no pressure.

I’ve now just completed it and enjoyed the whole experience. I can’t wait to get my little business up and running.
Thank you all

Louisa Forsyth – Stratford upon Avon

Super Fun

Tara

This course was super fun and so easy to follow.

I loved the convenience of learning everywhere, I could use my phone or tablet and do the course in the car, breaks while at work or in the privacy of my living room. The videos were wonderful and the worksheets helped so much as well… I’m more confident in myself now 🙂

Tara Ireland – Surrey

Extremely interesting as well as informative

Kirsty

This is just what I needed to help me launch my business!

I am so excited to use all I have learned here and apply it to my own venture! Was wonderful learning all the science behind the role and was truly, exactly what I was looking for in a course.

I will be referring back to the materials, it is extremely interesting as well as informative!

Thank you so much!!!

Kirsty Johnson – Welwyn Garden City

The videos were a good way to practice

Fiona

I’ve completed the course and have started to prepare myself as a mobile nail technician.

The online course was easy to understand and the videos were a good way to practice step by step.

Many thanks

Ellis Gardiner – Gloucester

An amazing way to turn your hobby into a nice little money maker

Amy

I started doing nails as a hobby, and my interest just carried on growing, I never thought that I would end up qualified!

This is an amazing way to turn your hobby into a nice little money maker and boost your own confidence and knowledge in the process.

Amy Armstrong – Cumbria

Great course which is simple to do

Charlie

Great course which is simple to do but you get a great qualification in the end and if you fail a unit it is simply to retake.

Thank you for the amazing opportunity to be a nail technician! The course is very interesting, helpful and detailed. I have enjoyed every module and very very soon I’ll have a certificate! Highly recommend!

Justina Pavliukoviciene – Peterborough

Amazing Course

Kelly

Amazing course! Clear training videos and everything you need to know to become a nail tech! I’m so pleased I decided to do this. It’s put me on track to work for myself and own my own business

Kelly Goulding – Corby

Highly recommended

Sue

I was a little sceptical about doing an online course as thought it wouldn’t be very in depth, but how wrong I was!

Very thorough and covered everything yo could possibly need. I trained many years ago and wanted a refresh and this was perfect and enabled me to get my insurance and feel confident being back in the Beauty Industry.

I’m now about to start another refresh course on waxing and cant wait to get going, I will most certainly be back to do more. If you’re unsure whether to do an online course, don’t be, its a must. Highly recommended!

Sue Pearce – Hoddesdon

This course is brilliant and I would recommend to anyone!

Emma

I was a bit nervous when I first purchased the nail technician diploma online course for the one reason that it was so cheap compared to other online courses I had seen.

I have recently taken this course and i can honestly say that it is so easy to follow and you really do learn all the things you need to know to become a successful nail technician from the nail anatomy to starting your own business and all the other helpful bits in between.

I can’t believe I am well on my way to becoming a qualified nail technician:) If you are worried about purchasing this course then don’t be! This course is brilliant and I would recommend to anyone! xxx

Emma Thorpe – Sheffield

I can’t stop studying!

Mia

I have started this course only 1 day ago and I cant stop studying. The information is very informative. I like the way the course gives you time to practice to get the skill right before you move onto the next subject.

I am looking forward to completing the course so I can start doing the nails properly. Highly Recommended.

Mia James – Hull

Would definitely recommend!!

sade-aubrey

Love this course!! Everything included is so helpful, from the basics straight through to setting up your own salon.

Being a mother and working full time I was able to work at my own pace.

Would definitely recommend!!

Sade Aubrey – Gloucester

Very easy to follow with simple, clear instructions

janice-waterman

After much searching, I stumbled across this online course which sounded perfect for what I wanted and was available at a very affordable cost. This is the first time I have taken an online course, so wasn’t sure what to expect or if my money was going to be well spent.

The course is great, it was very easy to follow with simple, clear instructions and the additional use of video demonstrations that I found extremely helpful. It was handy to be able to print off all the course modules to keep for future reference and nice to receive a certificate upon completion.

Whilst I will probably never have a career as nail technician, I have gained what I wanted from this course, lots of knowledge and new confidence to do manicures/pedicures on both myself, friends & family.

Janice Waterman – Caledonia, Nova Scotia

I will 100% recommend this to friends and family!

Loved the course, I just finished! So easy to do around normal day to day life, loved being able to complete in my own time and the modules and videos were very informative! Can’t wait to take my next steps in following my passion!

I passed first time which I’m super happy about and learnt so much I didn’t know, I will 100% recommend this to friends and family! The price of the course was also really cheap compared to other places which is why I will most definitely be looking to do another course with New Skills Academy! Thank you

Caitlan Mckenzie-Dawes – London
