Hello!

My name is Katy, and I am a passionate and dedicated specialist tutor and executive function coach, with over a decade of teaching, tutoring and now coaching experience in a variety of educational settings in the UK.

A ‘later in life’ diagnosis of ADHD has led me to this work – the more I find out about ADHD, how our brains work, and strategies that genuinely fit my brain, the more I have wanted to share.

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working with a range of children and their families, catering to a diverse array of neurodivergent minds. First, as a primary school class teacher, then as a specialist teacher, and now as an ADHD and Executive Function Coach. This journey has reinforced my belief in the transformative power of personalised, one-on-one support. As a result, I decided to focus my efforts on offering private services to clients and their families, to generate meaningful and lasting impact.

A guiding principle throughout my career has been to support and embrace neurodiversity, driving me towards promoting equality and inclusion across all phases of life. My experiences as a specialist teacher and the training I have received as a coach have expanded my capacity to provide essential support to individuals of all ages; helping them manage their personal responsibilities and navigate their environments more effectively.

My qualifications reflect a broad foundation in education, and specific training in supporting individuals with diverse learning needs. My approach is always tailored, empathetic, and rooted in the latest educational research, ensuring that the strategies and support I provide are not only effective but also empowering for the individuals and families I work with.

ADHD and Executive Function Coaching – Personalised coaching for individuals of all ages facing ADHD or executive function challenges.
Each coaching session concentrates on improving your executive functions, most often with a focus on time management, overcoming procrastination, organisation, study skills, and emotional regulation. Whether you have ADHD or not, these challenges can affect anyone. I work collaboratively with children, students, and professionals to set goals and develop practical, workable strategies to make life easier and to find success. Using established principles of neuroscience and up-to-date research, I can help you discover an empowering path forward.

Specialist tutoring for Dyslexics and learners with additional or complex needs.
Each one-to-one tutoring session is tailored to cater to your child’s unique learning profile. By working closely together, we can pinpoint the most effective learning strategies and identify any gaps or areas that need extra attention. Every session is carefully planned to be enjoyable, engaging, and effective, fostering connection and progress.
