I recently finished my studies at IHNA Perth. I really want to do special thanks to my educator Dhanya and Pooja Ma’am to make my study experience great. They are wonderful teachers full of knowledge. They are one of the best teachers, very well organised in their work and very polite towards their students.
BIG THANKS 😊

I am really happy with all the help and guidance throughout my course. Really flexible for us as sometimes we are all busy, and educators are always there to help. I got my placement and certification really quick. I will be recommending it to everyone who is looking to pursue a career in the fields and the study they offer. IHNA Perth is really thankful for everything. I will be coming again for my diploma.

When you study online, the only way to communicate is via messages or phone calls, POORVI PATEL stands above the rest.There has been a lot of doubts and confusion regarding the course, but she has always guided me in the right direction whether its late at night or early morning Poorvi was always there to reply to my messages and I am sure other students must have felt the same way. She enjoys her work and takes pride in resolving queries. Thank you for all your efforts and dedication. I am beyond grateful for your guidance and support.
