Pretty much anything art-related is pretty much useless without peer evaluations. That's a lot harder to do through an online classroom. A writing class would be VERY practical online, because the medium is easily transfered online, and it allows the face of the author to be absent from the picture much easier. I mean....as much as I'd like to think it doesn't happen.....the appearance of a writer in a classroom environment can impact that person's grade. A grade in a writing class should reflect only one thing....how well that person writes. If you're going for fashion school.....I'd strongly urge NOT to go to an online academy. Doing nails is something that should be evaluated in person.....just answering questions doesn't qualify a person to do brain surgery.....and while nail tech is admittedly far less important....it's still a SKILL and not just a peice of information one can aquire. Skills must be developed....knowledge must be aquired. They go well together, but the skill should be developed in a suitable fashion......online schools are not that fashion.<br><b>References : </b><br> First thing to ask yourself….is weather or not it’s possible to actually learn much of anything useful for your program if you’re not around other people while learning.

That being said, if what you are trying to learn is something you need to do hands on, it is probably better to do it in the traditional way. Will you really be able to be a nail technician if you've never actually worked on anyones nails before?<br><b>References : </b><br> I don’t know about the Uk, but I know a lot of people in the States who have taken online courses and they have been legit.
