Kip McGrath Education Centre Chester-le-Street
We are a mother and daughter team who are passionate about young people, building their confidence and helping them reach their potential. We own and operate two highly successful education centres, in Gateshead East and Chester-le-Street.
Our second education centre is conveniently situated in the heart of Chester-le-Street. We provide professional tuition in maths and English for children aged 6 to 18 years. Our fully qualified teachers deliver outstanding lessons in 60 minute sessions, with 3 to 4 children in a session, with one on one teaching. Each child receives a bespoke lesson plan based on their individual needs. We begin with an initial free assessment, which allows us to design each child's lesson focused on their specific requirements.
We can offer both in centre and online lessons, all with their regular tutor each week.
