STUDENT-TEACHER RATIO

Our dedication to our students and focus on detailed, hands-on training means we keep our student-to-teacher ratio low to ensure the best possible skill development and supervision.

Rather than the requirement of one teacher to 30 students, we prefer small class sizes and personalized attention for our students. Our ratio is one teacher for every 8 students.
