Esthetician Student Update

Last week, the last student -- Jennifer, of my first class (which started last January) graduated. Last January, I started my teaching position and for the past year have been training/facilitating/teaching this group of amazing women ... a whole year, 4 days a week, 4 hours a night! Needless to say, I became very close with each one and am feeling a bit of empty nest syndrome. So far, 5 have taken the state exam and 5 have passed! I am confident the others will pass too because they are serious, confident and passionate about being estheticians and pursuing a career that is fulfilling. I miss all of you and am so blessed that you were my first class to teach (and learn)!

I must say though that my empty nest syndrome being cured by the new seniors, which started in August. They are wonderful and I am having so much fun with them! As a new teacher, it is quite rewarding to see the new and unique character of each student and how this group is different than the first. I love to learn about each student and where they come from and what intriques their learning process. If I could I would shrink them all and carry them around in my pocket all day:) I love being a teacher ... it's so rewarding!
