Business Owner and Lead Teacher

I have always valued education and have a love of learning. After completing my Music and Business studies degree at The University of Chester I went on to complete a PGCE at MMU to become a qualified teacher.

 

I enjoy teaching and every day is different when you are working with children, their energy and enthusiasm is infectious and to instil that same love of learning and inspire them to be their best and excel in their education is so rewarding. From 2009 until 2013 whilst teaching full time I studied at MMU to complete a master’s degree in teaching and learning, developing my own knowledge and understanding of how children learn and engaging them to achieve their potential.

After having children, I then trained in Baby Sensory and Toddler Sense, learning about how babies develop from inside the womb all the way to early years education.

 

After 10 years running my own successful Baby Sensory and Toddler Sense Manchester business, I have handed over the reigns to the new business owner and found a fantastic permanent home for our Strive Education Centre. 

​

Our Centre is based in Prestwich near Heaton Park, my vision for Strive was to create a warm and inclusive environment where students feel supported, motivated, and empowered to succeed. 

​

My mission is simple: to help children Strive to be their best.

Tuition SERVICES

Tuition Services

All our sessions are delivered by fully qualified teachers, ensuring expert guidance and high-quality learning experiences.

We work with children from Reception through to GCSE level, helping them build strong foundations, develop vital skills, and prepare with confidence for the future.

We teach in small groups based on ability, which allows students to learn from one another through discussions and peer-to-peer activities in a supportive and friendly setting. This approach ensures that every child is challenged and can achieve their best, with work that's always differentiated and tailored to their needs.

Small groups: Big results!

​

Getting Started

For all new students, we offer a four-week starter package for our small group tuition including our starter discount of one week FREE. During these four weeks, your child will attend a one-hour private tutoring session each week and will also be given additional work to complete at home.

If you wish to continue after the four weeks, your child can then be enrolled in our regular weekly timetable.

The weekly classes are £25 payable in advance by standing order. 

**Not applicable for 1:1 tuition**

Alternative Provision & EOTAS Tuition in Greater Manchester

At Strive Education Manchester, we provide high-quality, personalised tuition for children and young people who require additional educational support outside of mainstream school settings. Based at our welcoming tuition centre in Prestwich, we work with families, schools and local authorities across Greater Manchester to deliver flexible Alternative Provision (AP) and Education Otherwise Than At School (EOTAS) programmes.

​

Our experienced, fully qualified teachers provide tailored tuition in Maths, English and Science from Primary through to GCSE, supporting learners with a wide range of educational needs, including Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), barriers to school attendance and those requiring an alternative approach to learning.

​

Through individualised teaching, small-group sessions and a nurturing, inclusive environment, we aim to rebuild confidence, encourage positive engagement with education and help every learner make meaningful academic progress. Our programmes are adapted to each student's needs, abilities and learning goals, with regular monitoring and progress feedback.

Strive Education is an approved provider on the MIAPS framework and we welcome enquiries from local authority SEND teams, EOTAS caseworkers, schools, SENCOs and families seeking supportive, flexible educational provision.

​
