Testimonials

I did my VTCT Level 2,3 & 4 at Ray Cochrane. We had different lecturers for each course and naturally each course depended entirely on the lecturer in charge. I'm writing this review for my VTCT Level 3 course in which I have just completed.
Ms Marley is an amazing tutor and we were lucky enough to have her. She was always very supportive, helpful and patient in making sure we properly understood our syllabus. She's extremely knowledgeable and (aside from practical) I feel that I've learned a lot about physiology and anatomy as well. Thanks to her help I feel that I have grown so much as an aesthetician (despite being in this industry for a little less than a year). She provided me with the tools in which I'm now confident enough to start my own beauty business despite coming from a strategic planning background.

_Ana Silva, London

I completed my level 2 and 3 in nails and my level 3 in beauty therapy. I can not recommend Ray Cochrane enough. I am now going to complete my level 4 courses and looking forward to being back. They are knowledgeable about many things and the information they provide on their courses is very in depth. This helped me build my confidence to work in the beauty industry. I highly recommend them. They provide excellent support and are super helpful. The whole team from the teachers to the reception are great. Completely worth it!
