Increasing Learner Engagement
I
ncreasing learner engagement is a challenge that all Educators encounter. Today’s learner needs to be actively engaged, and purpose driven during the learning process. Continuous education keeps each and every one of us at the top of our game. Being an Educator is not about being a star- rather sharing everything to help others.
There can be a lot of noise and fear mongering about the skincare market and as an Educator it is important to find the right fit for your particular teaching style while continuing to assist learners in understanding solid educational content and practices. That will have a profound effect on the learners’ self-confidence, skill development and your own success.
Learners should be given opportunities to practice and improve their performance in a variety of ways. This could be as simple as incorporating differentiated instruction to meet the various learning styles and needs of the learner. Participate in professional development opportunities and have a willingness to watch, listen and learn. As Educators be a life–long learner, mentor and coach and keep your eye on the goal of image and education.
I look forward to working with schools and answering any questions on the National Esthetician Certification program.
