Student Reviews

What Our Students Are Saying

★★★★★

With a busy schedule and being limited to taking time off to travel. The online course is worth it. All the modules on the course was well thought out and organized. This course touches on everything you need to get you started, from tools, materials and detailed how to videos. With any skill trade I understand it takes time and repetition to master a new skill. Can't wait to apply what I learned in the real world.

Peter Nguyen
★★★★★

As a person who has no experience in window tinting, this program was very educational and helpful. I was able to learn at my own pace and was even able to view the material/videos from my phone. I definitely feel more confident and comfortable after using this program. [Film Slayers]/Window Film Academy have done a great job on presenting this information and I will recommend this program to others looking to get into the industry!

Michael Monahan
★★★★★

This is a great course for beginners for the money! I learned some things that I've been doing wrong this entire time. I'm going to try and apply them on my next jobs! Awesome!
