Nail it and Thrive, a new creative course for teens, is offering a unique alternative for parents looking for summer holiday activities. Launched just a few months ago, this online course has already gained a large following and is quickly becoming a popular choice for teenagers aged 12 and above.
Unlike other summer holiday clubs, which are often aimed at younger children, Nail it and Thrive offers a course specifically designed for teenagers. By combining the art of nail design with a respected qualification, the course aims to not only teach creative skills, but also develop important employability skills for the future.
The course, which is the first of its kind, offers a Level 2 (GCSE-equivalent) nail art qualification, recognized by many institutions across the UK. With a focus on community-based activities, the course encourages students to explore professional career paths and develop leadership skills by running their own arts projects.
By completing the Arts Award in Nail Art, teenagers can gain valuable experience and skills that can be applied to a variety of future career paths. This includes leading nail art workshops, curating exhibitions, or even starting their own mini nail art business.
Aside from the potential career benefits, learning nail art can also be a cost-saving option for parents. With the rising costs of regular nail bar visits, teenagers can not only earn money by offering their nail art services, but also save their parents’ pockets.
The Nail it and Thrive Summer Club course is flexible and self-paced, making it easy for teens to fit it into their summer schedules. With no set start dates and the ability to complete the course entirely online, students have up to 12 months to finish their portfolio. There are no exams or requirements to attend any institution, as the assessment is solely based on the portfolio.
To ensure students stay engaged and motivated, the course also offers a dedicated, interactive online community where students can share their work and receive one-to-one guidance and support. Teens can practice on friends or use a nail stand with tips and Blu Tak for independent work.
For parents looking for a creative and educational option for their teenagers this summer, Nail it and Thrive offers a unique and valuable opportunity. To join, simply visit the website and start the course anytime from 30th July. Don’t miss out on this innovative and exciting summer alternative for teens.
