My decision to study with Ray Cochrane was one of the best decisions I have made in my career. Having known about the School for many years and its reputation as one of the very best in the UK, I was not disappointed by the amazing tutoring teams and the admin team too, who made the whole journey seamless and enjoyable. There was a great atmosphere between the students and the staff which made the whole learning process really enjoyable. The quality of the training was excellent and the tutoring team were highly skilled and knowledgeable in their subjects; both foundational (level 2 and 3) and advanced training (level 4). You were always made to feel that you could approach the teams for any support and advice; so much so that I went back to study some more!

I attended Ray Cochrane nail technician course level2&3. I have chosen this school for their reputation and a course which was running on Sundays.
I enjoyed studying this nail course and I have met great people. Our teacher Krisztina was really knowledgeable, professional and she always engaged with students while teaching Our course was during pandemic and school complied with government rules.
It was pleasant experience to study in Ray Cochrane school thank you.

Just wanted to write a quick review with my experience with these guys. So i'm a first time salon owner in North West London and i'm so nervous because its my first business so I came to Ray Cochrane school for my laser training. I can honestly say this was the only school in the UK who used the latest tech to teach there student most other schools that I looked at had old laser machines so out of date that there wasn't a point of even learning on them. Their teacher always adapt to your circumstances so comes classes I couldn't make due to my business how ever they always bent backwards but doing an extra hour for me on another day I can not stress honestly how good these guys are and I hope you guys read properly about each school before you join to do your courses....good luck everyone !!!

I completed a level 4 laser course and was taught by Miglena who was very professional and knowledgeable. Miglena always answered my questions and made me feel confident in being a laser practitioner. I enjoyed the course and don’t have anything negative to say. I’ll probably be back for a microblading course soon. Definitely recommend this school!

I am enjoying studying here, school keeps all standards hight and complies with the law during COVID-19. I can see my progress and also, thanks for Krisztina for professional attitude towards her students and also advice in particular personal questions. Lessons are funny, interesting, professional sometimes strict but it is just on behalf of our own benefit. ????????

Thoroughly enjoyed completing my course here. The tutors were fantastic and thorough, friendly and are always on the end of the phone if I have questions. Karina was my main tutor and it was a privilege to have her teach me with her outstanding knowledge And experience in the industry. The owner spent time talking me through machine advise which I found very valuable for the future of my own clientele. Highly recommend.

SUCH A DISAPPOINTING EXPERIENCE !!!
I invested my time, a hell of money, my energy and all I got in return was disrespect and toxicity. It's all fun and games until you speak up to fight for your own rights (and this is all fair, as long as I paid those money I want a decent service in return) and that is the day when everything changes and all of a sudden you'll have to face cold answers, unfair treatment, rude behaviour from the tutor.
Secondly, yes, a lot of times we'll have to compromise but I am sorry I'll never compromise my health!!!
And if you don't care, well, I care.
It isn't fair, I went to study in this course, I didn't go there to experience anxiety, the toxicity and rudeness of the tutor's behaviour. This is so unprofessional!!!
As a "bonus" you'll get:
~poor hygiene in the premises
~not enough space for the beauty treatments
~effort goes unnoticed by the tutor

I have nearly completed my level 2 & 3 nail technician course with Ray Cochrane and the training and information I have received has been outstanding. I chose this school for my qualification as it was recommended to me ,the knowledge you receive is very in depth regarding nail anatomy and disorders and how to practice exemplary hygiene while training and once you have qualified.It is also one of the only courses which offered a Sunday class so I could attend whilst still working full time.
My tutor was Krisztina and she was so knowledgable and professional that I have learnt so much throughout my training and I cannot thank her enough!
It has been a tough year to get this qualification due to the COVID-19 pandemic however Ray Cochrane as a school have been so accommodating and have given ongoing support and have always followed the government guidance whilst keeping us informed and safe throughout. I highly recommend choosing this school to get your qualifications you will not be disappointed. I am even looking to further my education on one of their other courses...

I have almost completed my level 2&3 nail technician diploma, i have been taught by Krisztina, who is an amazing tutor, she goes above and beyond for all the students. Considering how this last year has been due to covid-19 and all the new regulations, ray Cochrane and Krisztina have made sure to give us as much support and help as possible. I have learnt so much from this course and I can't thank Krisztina enough for all her hard work and effort that she continues to put in for us to come out of this course with all the knowledge that we will need. The COVID measures that Ray Cochrane have put in place have defiantly helped keep my mind at ease as i feel very safe going in every week! I would highly recommend this course and have enjoyed my time there.

Stay away from this company, they are a scam and will just take your money and not provide a quarter of what they are saying. They refuse to give you a refund even though no classes were attended apart from the first induction day where we realised we no longer wanted to go ahead with the course. We offered to take some money of the bill as we attended induction although induction should be a standard as how else would one know if its the course they want to do. Further more corona virus policies are not followed. I have listed All these on their emails and they are replying in ways to keep you going in circles and holding more than £700.00 of my money when I did not attend any classes.
Stay away from them

I cannot think of a better school to study any forms of beauty, than the Ray Cochrane school. I recently completed the level 2/3 Nail Tech course and was fortunate to have such a professional, knowledgeable and caring teacher. Krisztina goes above and beyond for her students and tries to give more knowledge within the classes then what is just required. She continues to support her students post-qualification, and I just couldn’t think of a better person to help anyone start there career in the beauty industry. The school has been wonderful and the location is great ! Huge thanks to Krisztina and the wonderful administration team!

School is very professional and my tutor Karina was outstanding. Very supportive and caring towards her students. Explained everything very well. Impressed considering it’s her second language which I know how hard Karina worked to teach in English. Would high recommend school and the staff. Value for money and a high level of teaching. Thanks Karina ????

Just completed my level 4 laser and ipl training at ray Cochrane and couldn’t be happier! Karina is an amazing tutor who makes sure you get everything right with both practical and theory, she is very friendly and makes it easy to ask as many questions as possible and is willing to give extra help outside the course regarding machines and any other information you may want. I can not recommend this course enough, especially with karina. And thank you to eleonora as well who helped deliver the theory side of the course during this pandemic through zoom meetings.

I have been going as a client for years to Ray Cochrane. The students are exceedingly well supervised and kept running on time by excellent teachers. I also like that you can chose from a variety of product lines for your treatment according to your budget. Although it easily reached at busy Baker Street being lower ground it is peaceful once you are there.

This is the best beauty school ever!
Teachers are very knowledgeable and supportive. They work very hard to make sure that every student gets sufficient support for their studying.
In the school the teachers were helping every single one of the students to make sure that they understood everything was taught in the class, both in theory and practical.
I was doing two short courses at the same time, which means that I will have to complete almost 3 assignments each week. I have to say it was very stressful work and a big thank you to Karina, my tutor, who was very supportive and understandable.
This school is worth every single penny I have paid for. Highly recommend!
It is shame that the school does not run a course for a single unit for level 3.
Thank you Roy Cochrane and Karina

I was taught a year ago by Flora (Level 2) and Cathetine (level 3) and I have to say, the level of professionalism and support I had from both of these tutord has carried me through into my first Aesthetic Job. Their patience and consideration for individual students and as a group was phenomenal!!! The class sizes however, may have been a bit too big considering the physical space in the room. Other than that, I am so grateful!
Many thanks Ray Cochrane, I'll be back for my level 4 soon!

I attended Ray Cochrane Beauty School to complete a Level 2 Diploma in Beauty Therapy starting in January 2018 joining the Saturday class taught by Flora. Generally, I found the school to be well-organised, flexible and accommodating. It was assuring to work with up-to-date equipment and products. I found Flora extremely knowledgeable as a teacher and very approachable and supporting as a person. I would be more than happy to recommend the school, teaching and course.

I started my beauty therapy level 2 course with this beauty school from November last year. I was referred by my friend who did the same beauty therapy course back in last April and visited Ray Cochrane Beauty along with other a few Central London beauty schools. Finally I decided to join Ray Cochrane based on the course fee, mode of study, other students' reviews and my own impression.
I was well informed during the school visit meeting that this fast track level 2 course was very intensive. I was also told that minimum 10 hours per week home learning was required. I strictly followed my tutor's requirements and completed the course in 16 weeks.
I very enjoyed my study time at the school and met a lot of nice people there. My tutor Antoinette was very strict, experienced and fair. I had her from beginning to end. I heard another tutor, Catherine, was very nice and I will consider to join her level 3 beauty class in this Summer.
The school was generally good and at really convenient location. I would recommend this course to someone who can meet deadline and also dedicate good amount of spare time studying since this course is not an ordinary part time course but a fast track course with home learning and practising.

I studied level 2 beauty therapy at Ray Cochrane beauty school, one person I will always remember is my Teacher Zarina, she was not only supportive with everybody but very caring and always available to help you anytime. She is extremely respectful to all students, and very considerate to everyone. I really liked to way she teaches us, she always add a little sense of humor in middle that makes the lesson not boring, she is very funny and full of energy. I admired her commitment even when she was not well, she managed to come and be on our side to be ready for the exam. Thanks to Zarina, I am now studying level 3 at the same school and setting up my own mobile business.... Slowly but surely.
Happy Christmas and Happy New year to Zarina and Ray Cochrane beauty school at Backer street????????

I have completed level 2,3 and 4 at Ray Cochrane and I am so happy with the structure and support this school provides. The teachers are so lovely and help you learn and equip you so well to be able to leave feeling ready to work for a well reputable clinic. I secured a job at Harley Medical group as soon as I finished my qualifications at Ray Cochrane and now have my own Aesthetics Clinic in London. I am still able to contact Ray Cochrane and their on going support even after finishing my studies with them is remarkable, they always make time to help their students no matter what the query is. I would like to thank Xubin, Eleonora, Catherine and the team for working so hard and making my course so much fun and well organised. Highly recommend Ray Cochrane to everyone!!

I have just completed my level 4 laser qualification and I loved my course. My teacher Karina is a professional and in 6 weeks we have learnt a lot. The group was the right size, we were 6 of us which gives us time to ask questions and have plenty of time to practise on models. If I had to do another beauty course I would definitely chose this school again.
