Course Info

This program will show you, step by step, how to be an extraordinary teacher. Taught by one of the field’s most dynamic and pioneering thought leaders, with 30+ years of experience, you will have the kind of personal attention and hands-on experience rarely offered in traditional teacher training programs.

This course will focus on preparing you to teach within a classroom setting as well as within your community. The role of a teacher, meaningfully connecting and inspiring others, extends to many parts of our lives outside of the classroom, so this program welcomes anyone who wishes to take their passion for essential oils to the next level, and develop the skills necessary to effectively convey the power of Aromatherapy and aromatic plant medicine to their clients, patients, social network, and perhaps most importantly, their community. This course also completes the pre-requisite for our Level 2 Teacher Training which trains you to be able to teach our Level One Certification course.
