ADVICE FROM A PRO: Becoming a Beauty Educator

becoming a beauty educator in alberta

In light of our new Beauty Educator courses, we’ve reached out to the finest Beauty Educators that this city has to offer. These educators have been tried, tested, and true! We asked them a few questions to help Beauty Service Providers who want to become educators take the next step.

Let’s start with our very own, Jhoenna Rosa. Jhoenna is the Technical Director at Executive Spa Group. She develops curriculums and oversees their delivery by qualified Beauty Educators, who track and report on each student’s progress.

Jhoenna brings years of experience. She has been a certified esthetician for over sixteen (16) years and is reputable and recognized within the beauty industry as a leader and excellent service provider. She has produced award-winning students during her years as an educator in two of Canada’s top esthetics schools.

Without further ado let’s get on with the interview:


What is the biggest challenge with students?

I would say the biggest challenge is catering to all the different learning styles not only on a theory level but also on a technical level. Technical services require skills such as dexterity and attention to detail, which are things that take time to develop. Given the time frame that is typical for beauty programs, it’s a challenge to ensure that each student leaves with the necessary skills to continue to develop after the classroom setting.

Memorable days

The least fun days are exam days because there is a lot of tension in the air. Students are nervous and it’s just not fun to be in that position as a student or as a supervisor were you know that you are being super critical and can’t provide help or feedback.

The most fun days are practice/model/floor days. They are always fun!

Skills of a great Beauty Educator

When I’m looking to hire a Beauty Educator, one of the skills that I look for is leadership. The ability to instruct a class and direct the students appropriately and engage them on their learning.

I also expect a level of administrative and organizational skills as that does take up a portion of the role of beauty educator.

In addition, I look for someone who has a good ability to improvise and be creative with the class as not every class is going be the same. This is especially true when you’re dealing with the technical aspect and different models are coming in.

And of course, I expect a high standard of technical skill- so 3-5 years of experience is ideal.

Pride in your students

There are quite a few students over the years who have made me proud to have been their educator. Those individuals are the ones that took their education seriously and developed it into a thriving and lucrative career and really made a name for themselves in the industry.

Also, the ones that took it a step further and opened up their own business. They are now putting their own ideas and creativity out there and continue to raise the standard in the beauty industry.
