Our Subjects
We focus on the core subjects of Maths and English. A solid foundation in both of these subjects is crucial for children, now, more than ever. Good grades demonstrate to future employers that they will be able to cope confidently with the demands of their work. We provide both primary and secondary Maths and English tuition, covering Key Stages 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Our Teachers
Our tutors are fully qualified teachers, with QTS status. They all hold current enhanced DBS and Barring List checks. They work hard to plan each lesson for your child; work with them during the lesson and set and mark relevant homework, re-enforcing the topics they have been doing in their class. They always ensure your child is confident in a topic before introducing a new one.
Testimonies
It is amazing to hear from our children and parents on the progress that is made by the students we teach. We even receive feedback from teachers about the students are getting on back in school. They often spot the increased confidence and self-esteem the child demonstrates in class, which is really fantastic to hear. Here are some of our most recent testimonies.
Why Students Choose Kip McGrath Derby South?
Our experience is that students know themselves when they’re struggling in school. They either tell a parent straight away or continue to fight it for a period of time. Once they’re able to tell someone it’s more likely that help can be identified and engaged.
Dave and Sue opened the Kip McGrath Education Centre Derby South in Allenton, Derby in October 2011.
Over the past 12 years, we have provided successful professional English and Maths tuition to more than 1,000 local students, helping to positively change their life outcomes. We are immensely proud of their achievements. Our passion today remains as strong as it was in 2011; helping students realise their full potential and do better in school, is what we’re all about.
Our professional English and maths tutoring is for children of all abilities, aged 5 – 18 within the Derby South area. Our tutoring is personal and individual to each child, delivered within a small group setting.
With excellent facilities to offer both In Centre and Online tutoring, our qualified teachers inspire students weekly to achieve their very best and to develop their own love of learning. Kip teachers know what works, and how to get the best from each student.
It doesn’t matter whether your child is preparing for specific school exams, or they just want a boost (not just academically, but to their confidence and self-esteem as well); we encourage you to find out what others have already achieved with the help of Kip McGrath.
We have been teaching children in Derby since 2011
