I came to the College six years ago to set up a dog grooming salon offering courses for students to groom our ever growing dog clientele. I have gained a number of teaching qualifications, dog grooming knowledge and experience that I am proud to share with my students. I love watching my students progress into confident and caring professionals.Joanna Elson
