Maksim Timofeev

A big hello from Saint-Petesburg, Russia,

My name is Maxim and I’m a Men’s Personal Stylist. I’ve been working as a stylist since 2009. By time I started studying in LCS, I’ve already had more than 1000 shopping sessions with clients, but my only source of knowledge were Russian styling courses and books. I always wanted learn abroad, and 2019 was the year I finally decided to choose some international styling course.

I considered Italy, England and France. After few weeks of analysis, I choose the London College of Style, as the course content was good and the reviews and website gave strong recommendations and LCS offered a specific men’s personal styling course – so that was very solid point.

As I never been to London, I needed more information about the city and LCS. I asked the only men I knew from England, my friend from Instagram, Phil Tarling. I can’t describe my surprise when Phil said he was a tutor at LCS. I bought tickets to London, met Phil, asked some questions about the Men’s Personal Styling E-Diploma and made a payment same day and started studying. It took me 2 months to finish course, and going through it, I chatted with Dan with different issues and in my next trip to London we managed to meet. That’s how I found two new friends in London.

It was really interesting to study. The LCS diploma certification and association is powerful validation for my business. After studying the course I raised prices on my services by 30% and redesigned my website. I also booked my first client in London and started shopping tours to London too and have much more to come.

Thanks to Dan, Phil and all LCS crew.
