If you are thinking about lecturing in college then you usually start on their agency.
Contact the head of your local hair & beauty department with a cv and take it from there. You can do your teaching qualifications alongside your teaching hours.
You need to be at level 3 with a minimum of 5 years experience ideally.
Any specialisms you have would be a bonus.

Thanks for your reply. I'm asking as I'd like to know how someone can become a tutor offering individual courses independently. Not so much working for a college etc (Not sure if that makes a difference to anything?)

Ive just started my own courses, you need to go to college and do the award in education and training course, once you do that you make all your booklets, lesson plans etc and get them accredited and once the insurance company confirm everything is up to standard you pay your insurance fee and thats you ready to teach xx

1 look into this carefully as City and Guilds is very reputable and guidelines are on their website to set up your own accreditation site but it's not the easiest thing to do to jump through the hoops etc 
but don't let that stop you it's well worth it
You'll need to do your Cert Ed level 4 qual ( 1 year ) , this has replaced your PTLLS and CTLLS , then you'll need your TAQA (12 weeks min to a year) this has replaced A1 and A2 to asses the actual content that you've taught, this can then lead on to you becoming a IV or a EV ( internal verifier or external verifier ) , good money and good contacts to make if you do become one good luck I've done my Cert Ed and am going through the TAQA currently [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]

good luck I've done my Cert Ed and am going through the TAQA currently [emoji106][emoji106][emoji106]It's not actually for me but I wanted to do an advanced waxing course and have been really let down and felt it even made me question myself. Which is why I wanted to know if this was an easy thing for some individual to do [emoji17]

Hi Airey Fairy,
I just joined salon geek and did a search on accreditation this post stood out, I hope you don't mind me asking you for a little more info. I am just starting to also look into accreditation for delivering pregnancy massage training. I completed my CertEd and taught at college a few years ago, I didn't do any assessing so I don't hold an a1 and wasn't sure on the relevance when teaching privately. Are you carrying your TAQA through distant learning or attending college?
Thanks in advance
