We value our instructors, models, and students very much and only want the

if you are suitable for an instructor position. More information about courses will
be given to you upon hiring.

OEFA offers three different course types: Modeling 101 (basic), Advanced, and
Elite. We also offer a mix ‘n’ match option where students can customize their
course to their needs.
Our Modeling 101 class is typically taught one on one but will occasionally be
taught as a group class depending on instructor availability and class sizes.
This course is designed for new models whom have little to no experience in
the modeling industry. Students will participate in a graduation runway show.
Next is the Advanced modeling class which is taught in a group class setting. It
focuses on models who want to hone their runway skills. Students will participate
in a graduation runway show. NO INSTRUCTORS CURRENTLY NEEDED.
Lastly, the Elite modeling class which is six 1 hour long lectures where different
fashion professionals will speak about different aspects of the modeling/fashion
industry. The instructor position for this class will be speaking for one of the hour
lectures and to handle student evaluations at the end of each lecture. Students will
produce their whole graduation show. Instructors will be hand chosen by Anastacia
and Grant. NO INSTRUCTORS CURRENTLY NEEDED.
▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨
There are a few different things each instructor will be required to do during and
after each class.
Each instructor will be required to give out homework all class times as instructed
on the teacher curriculum.
Instructors will also need to fill out evaluations for each student after every class
time. We will give you the form and it is to be returned to Anastacia Markova and
Grant Valeska.
Following the course guidelines is a MUST. We want all of our graduates to have an
even education. You may add certain topics if you feel the need to and you may
remove topics if the student has already learned it.
▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨ ▨

AVENUE Magazine Staff Transitions
—————————————————–
One certain thing in both our real and second lives is that change is a certainty, and today, we at AVENUE Magazine are embracing something new with the stepping down of Isadora Fiddlesticks, who has served our publication as Managing Editor, and also with the promotion of our new Editor in Chief, Sensuous Soulstar. Isadora has been an important part of the AVENUE family for several years, and she leaves her position having made many significant contributions for which we are so very grateful. We wish her much happiness and good fortune on her journey to come, but are pleased to announce that she will remain a part of the AVENUE family and may return to contribute again in the future.
AVENUE is pleased to announce the well-deserved promotion of Sensuous Soulstar to Editor in Chief. Sensuous came to AVENUE two years ago bringing with her a plethora of real life and virtual world experience in journalism and management. She began as a writer and was soon promoted to senior writer, and most recently, she has excelled in her role as General Manager. Sensuous possesses a real world communications and publishing background, having journalism experiences that include working as part of the newspaper staff during her university years at Howard University, as well as performing as a regular contributor to the Law Review during her law school years. Currently employed in the legal field, Sensuous enjoys the creative opportunities presented to her through her work with AVENUE Magazine. When asked about her future plans at AVENUE Magazine, Sensuous offered this: “As for my plans, I intend to continue the outstanding legacy that AVENUE has created. We will continue to provide readers with the most current trends in fashion, the most talented artists in SL and RL, the best places to call home, and of course continue to salute those that are in SL for a higher cause. I will continue to keep an open rapport with the staff and hope to remain a liaison between the staff and management, as that’s been one of my favorite aspects of my work as General Manager. I don’t know what the future holds for me, but I do know that the future looks incredibly blessed for AVENUE, and I’m grateful to be a part of that future.”
Please join us as we welcome Sensuous Soulstar to her new position as Editor in Chief of AVENUE Magazine. Indeed, we are looking forward to the many ways in which her contributions will enhance our future.

.::BRAND ME COMPETITION WINNERS::.
Thanks to all our competition entrants – it’s been difficult deciding from among all amazing suggestions! Thanks 🙂
Congratulations to Hybie Mynx for suggesting our winning brand name VERVE.
“Verve can mean gusto, passion , vitality, sparkle and energy. Verve is a simple word with a lot of meaning behind it. It’s a perfect word to describe three forces coming together as one”. ~ Hybie Mynx
Also congratulations to our runners up who will have products named after their suggestions:
RUNNER UP: MaHyeRi Resident, suggested Akiko: “Akiko is japanese name , means Iris; light and bright. as the brand it self very famouse this name had this music that you wont forget ” aKiKo ” , unique , Fashionable”
RUNNER UP: ViiiBRANT Magic, suggested Elan: “Elan Prounounced as ey-lahn or ay-lahn is a word with a french origin. While searching for a name that would represent everyone under this brand I searched sparkle. Reading the synonyms of “sparkle” this word was the ONLY word that spoke to me. The meaning is right on spot and there’s a originality factor”.
VERVE will replace AtomicBambi, SwanSong and EVOKE in August.
Thanks again,
AtomicSparkle Skytower
