How our online education works?


  • You study remotely. The lessons are available whenever it is convenient for you.
  • You immediately gain access to several lessons and can view them any number of times any time you wish.
  • Some lessons contain practical assignments that you need to fulfill.
  • Next lessons will only become available after the previos lesson’s assignments are completed.
  • You chose your own time to complete the tasks.
  • Make photos of your results and upload them to your account.
  • I evaluate the results, make comments and point out mistakes (if any), accept the assignment or ask you to try again.
  • You are constantly in touch with me. I always answer all the questions from all the students.
  • Take your time completing the tasks, do not hurry.
  • Spend as much time as you need on the assignments. We will prolong your access to the course for 1 or 2 weeks if required.
  • At the end of the course, when all your tasks are completed, you will be given access to the Test Lesson – the final evaluation of the knowledge gained during the course. After the Test is passed successfully you will get the numbered Certificate, written in your name.
  • All during the course the tasks submitted by each student are seen to the rest of the group. You can follow the teacher pointing out and correcting mistakes of your fellow students. This prevents you from making the same mistakes and gives a great opportunity to improve YOUR OWN work.

    Thanks Jenna and Kisa. Kisa I've never thought to just order that one size...Brilliant!!! I wanted to test them out on myself first for application and longevity before I offered this service. Kisa if I sign up for this class can you hold the start until I finish with my level 2 class? If so then I for sure want to sign up to learn the best techniques from you.
