Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5
Beginner Level
Students will learn the cornrow and single braiding technique. 

I will lead the class by demonstrating the technique to the students 2-3 times and then the learner will begin practicing the technique. Cameras are encouraged to remain on for the entire duration of the course so that I can see the learner’s work. I like to ask questions and have a discussion with the learner to see if they’re retaining the information for the day. 

Learners do not need to have experience. This is a beginner level class that will teach basic braiding techniques. 

Class Structure: 
1. Introductions and discussion time about previous lesson 
2. Talk about the braiding hairstyle we will do that day
3. I will demonstrate the technique to the learner 2-3 times
4. I will then ask the learner to join in with me as I continue doing the technique with them 
5. Learners are encouraged to ask any questions they may have or any issues they’re finding when they’re styling hair 
6. I will discuss our next session and after class practice work 

This class is one on one so I will take my time during each class lesson to ensure the learner is grasping the information. I will go as slowly or quickly as the learner. The speed of the class is dependent upon the learner. If the learner needs to take extra time with a lesson we will not move on until the learner has learned the technique. 

This course will only teach beginner’s techniques. It is not a master level so I’m not expecting perfection from the learner. I am looking for progression from the learner’s previous class. Ex: If they struggle with cornrows I like to see them applying the lessons learned and becoming a little better than before. If they struggle with ponytails or any other beginner’s technique I will work on helping the learner become more confident. 

Class Topics will include: 
Hair supplies for braiding 
Basic cornrows



Some lessons will include Power Point and discussions only. These classes will teach hair regimens, common hair issues, and more.
