Student Paced Expectations

Every day, students enter the cosmetology classroom. They have goals on the task boards for each day. This creates great expectations every day for each student to achieve.  The students have the opportunity to set their own” schedule” just like in real world salons.  They arrange each task in the order they feel is obtainable for them to complete the entire board for each day. This allows for students to become self-driven.    After attending the program, myself, and then becoming a professional stylist for 14 years in the salon, the students enjoy and really relate my experiences I share each day with them on obtaining their goals. After obtaining daily goals the students start to add more tasks to their own personal goal.  They relate the task boards to real world salon appointment books and strive to service more and more clients each day. My goal each day I enter the classroom is to prepare each student for the everyday salon life they will be entering.  I know what I struggled with when I left the program.  If I can prepare students to tackle each service to the best of their ability and prepare them the basics to build their clientele, I am confident they will succeed in the cosmetology industry.
