TGB Academy

Just completed my beginners gel polish course with Ewa. I felt very relaxed with her as soon as I walked through the door. She is a very good teacher and extremely talented. You can tell straight away that she is super passionate about her work and takes a lot of pride in it. I feel I learnt a lot in just one day and have gained confidence in my nail work. I would not hesitate in booking courses with Ewa again in the future.

I completed The Gel Bottle conversion course with Sue and right from the start she was very welcoming and accommodating. Living within close proximity to the training venue Sue invited me over for a chat prior to the training session. This aloud us the chance to get to know each other and for her to assess my training needs and experience level, so that on the training day we were able to get straight down to business and cover everything we needed to and in great depth. Sue is a lovely lady and very knowledgable about The Gel Bottle and the nail industry as a whole. I'm looking forward to further conversion training with Sue in gel pot in the not too distant future.

Already studying beauty therapy/theatrical media makeup at college i decided i want to build my skills, i completed the full gel bottle course and E-file course with Sharon a few weeks ago. Not being the most confident person Sharon made me feel very at ease and we went at a pace that was comfortable for me, not feeling rushed at all. She was very experienced and easy to talk to, even after the course was finished sharon was interested in my work and sets i had completed and i felt comfortable to ask her questions if i needed, i feel like i have gained a friend. Thank-you sharon!!xx

Cecile is an amazing instructor, who explains (and demonstrates) everything so clearly. I absolutely loved the whole of the 3 day course, would highly recommend to everyone and anyone. The whole atmosphere of the TGB NZ training & distribution centre in Papamoa is amazing. Everyone was so friendly, the facilities were great, and as for the food?!?! Unbelievably good. Cecile & Michanne, please do some other courses so I can come back!! You ladies are amazing x

After deciding I wanted to finally go for my goal & move into the nail industry I booked myself on the Gel Polish Beginner course. I was so excited on the lead up and was not disappointed as the day was even better than I could have imagined. Nat was a fantastic tutor and gave so much valuable information, tips & tricks for starting a business along side how to perfectly apply gel polish. I had such a fun day and will definitely be booking another course with Nat. I now feel ready & excited to start my new journey! xxx

After a lot of research and being quite torn of which nail training provider to go through I am SO glad I did my training through The Gel Bottle and how lucky I was to have Milica as my trainer! I was a complete beginner to nails, and didn’t really know what to expect, but from the moment I walked through the door, Milica made it such an enjoyable experience. She is an amazing trainer- so knowledgeable, a true expert, brilliant at teaching others the skills and technique and creates such a supportive, welcoming space to be in as a learner. I had such a great 3 days I was actually sad it was over!! Thank you Milica!!

I completed my full gel bottle course with Natalie back in 2021. Fast forward nearly two years later, I have used many of the skills, tips and tricks that she taught me during the course. Coming from a background with no nail experience, Natalie taught me so much and made me feel so confident during the 3 day course. She has incredible knowledge, expertise and patience to help anyone kick start their nail career!
