What it looks like to build differently
Tutors and teachers who decided to expand, and built something sustainable.
Some joined us mid-career, others after decades in the classroom. Many were already tutoring and ready for a different model. Here they are, in their own words.

Kind words
What tutors tell us
It’s not like those other courses where they kind of just tell you what to do and leave you alone. It’s a fully supportive system.
Ellie taught me the skills to launch my business and take my next step, out of the classroom! Thank you Ellie.
She’s just a really lovely, genuine person who cares and wants you to succeed.
Ellie is so down-to-earth and approachable which, alongside Mel and Terry, means I have never felt alone in this process.
Ellie and Mel are so supportive and understanding of people’s needs. I feel so much more positive about starting my own business.
Being self-employed can feel lonely at times, and this programme completely changed that.
