The Only Way....

HOW TO GET AN EDUCATION IN ANY ENVIRONMENT

HOW TO GET AN EDUCATION IN ANY ENVIRONMENT

1. Don't expect to be appreciated. Your only expectation should be to learn.

2. Don't come to school to have personal relationships. Keep your eye on the career you are here to achieve.

3. Don't allow others or your environment to affect who you are.

4. Look for opportunities to improve the classroom atmosphere without commenting on the challenges. Influence your environment in a positive way, don't let your environment infuence you negatively.

5. Each day is an opportunity to learn to work with different personalities. This is a blessing, even when it does not seem so.

6. Do your classwork and services well, remembering your mission is to be a daymaker, not a daybreaker. A cosmetologist is in their career to serve others.

7. Remember to do your best, where you are. Complete your education in a timely manner, without rushing. Keep in mind you are building your career. This building is done in steps, as on a ladder. Learning is done one step at a time. You must place your foot on the step firmly. If you skip a step or place only a part of your foot on the step, you will fall

REMINDER

You have been enrolled long enough to be accustomed to the Salon Iris system.  Clocking in/out, signing in/out is required.  If you make a mistake or forget to clock in/out, please clock in asap and note in the comments during clock out that I need to make a correction.  You can also email me within 24 hours of a necessary correction and I will make the adjustment.  If you let me know an adjustment is needed, you do not lose points on your employability skills grade.  
Being tardy for class may cause you to lose points on your employability skills grade. Employability skills are 1/3rd of your course grade.   I do take roll when I come into the classroom each morning.  If you are not in your seat, then you are marked tardy.  I also check the time clock to make sure everyone who is clocked in is present in class.  At the end of each week, I deduct the points from your employability skills grade.  If you are going to arrive in class after 9:00, email me to let me know and I will not deduct points. 

A reminder on how the employability skills grade works:
a.  each course you begin with 100 points
b. each infraction results in a deduction of points
c. any reason for point deduction is noted with your grade in focus.
