Here is what they say after taking my courses.
I started the Gel Base Plus course from scratch. What can I say? Michela is amazing: she makes you feel passionate about every lesson and love it.
As well as being an honest, extremely knowledgeable professional, she is always ready to help. You really feel supported...
It is a challenging course, but so rewarding. It will definitely be the first of many.
Thank you, Michela, for your kindness, which should never be taken for granted, and for every piece of advice ❤️
I am taking the Gel Base Plus course and started from scratch. What can I say? Michela explains everything perfectly in her lessons, and when she reviews your work, she makes it clear where you went wrong, which is exactly what you need, and gives you lots of advice. When I said I wanted to take an online course, people told me: no, take an in-person course, you will not learn anything online. But I can say I was right to trust myself and join Michela's Academy, because she is exceptional. I recommend it.
I have just finished my Gel Base Plus course with Michela. As well as being a wonderful experience, I found someone knowledgeable, well prepared, professional and brilliant at explaining things. There are still honest people who love their work and know how to share that passion.
I highly recommend her courses. You will feel at ease and finish feeling satisfied.
I took a Gel Base Plus course with Michela.
I had already taken two courses in the past but had not been at all satisfied. Full of doubts and disappointment, I was afraid to try again because I thought I was the problem and would never be able to do it.
Over these days Michela taught me so many aspects of the nail world that I had never seen before! I realised how important it is to put your trust in someone professional and honest!
And that is not all: Michela is an extremely kind and helpful person!
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her!
I was so pleased that I have already booked my next course 😊
I took the Gel Base Plus course and highly recommend it, especially if, like me, you are starting from scratch. Michela helps you fall in love with this world and gives you the right foundations to get started.
Today I received my Gel Base Plus course certificate. I am so happy because it is a huge achievement for me. Michela guided me step by step with great professionalism. I know there is still a long way to go because experience takes time, but I have taken that first big step. Thank you from the heart ❤️😘
I had already taken two beginner gel courses. To keep up to date and improve my technique, I wanted to take another, but this time online. Well, what can I say? A perfect course that gives you a truly comprehensive understanding of the basics of gel. I highly recommend it to everyone. Even though it is online, I found the course thorough and clearly explained throughout! Michela is a true professional and is also very helpful with everything. She deserves the highest rating ❤️ I will definitely take more courses with her academy 🥰
I am taking the online Gel Base Plus course 😍 What can I say? Highly recommended. It gives you very thorough information about working as a nail technician, and Michela is always happy to correct our work and give us suggestions 😍 I want to take more courses with her soon ❤️
I am halfway through the Base Plus course. What can I say? A whole new world has opened up to me. Michela explains everything in the smallest detail so naturally that you cannot fail to notice how knowledgeable she is. Even at a distance, through a video, Michela conveys her passion for what she teaches. I am very happy with the Base Plus course, and as soon as I finish it I will move on to the Dry Manicure & Gel Polish course. 🤩🤩🤩
What do I recommend? Everything! I had previously taken basic courses in person at a much higher price, but I never learnt what I am learning now, partly because so little was explained to me! Michela’s passion, precision and, above all, her detailed yet simple, accessible explanations mean you never miss being in a classroom. And what about being able to watch the course again as many times as you like? Priceless! I am taking 3 courses and will soon take another. Thank you, Michela, for the wonderful opportunity you have given us with this great Academy! A big hug 😉

This matters a great deal to me.
For me, sharing my knowledge is more important than handing out a piece of paper.
That is why the certificate is awarded only to those who demonstrate that they have understood the subject and can put what the course teaches into practice.

At the end of the course, you can:
You will then receive your certificate.
You are welcome to watch the course without working towards a certificate.
We believe this process gives the certificate greater value, making it more useful in your professional life. It is now well known that someone who holds my certificate has practical skills: it is not simply a certificate of attendance.
I hope to welcome you as one of my students soon and start this journey together.
