My son is dyslexic and really struggles with his learning. My son has been attending Kip McGrath for a few months now, we have found these to be really helpful for our son, he really enjoys going to his weekly lesson.

They don’t like any criticism of anything on their Facebook posts. If you post a negative comment, rather than being honest and answering it, the whole post will be deleted and then reposted and they will then block you from their page (oh dear, such a shame 😢)! ! Yesterday’s Remembrance Sunday post is not the original one is it? Don’t believe all of these reviews either. Many are from franchisees and responded to by them as if genuine… More...

My daughter has been attending KM for 5 months now. I can see the changes so well. She is more confident in her understanding, and ability and she loves going. The tutors and staff are professional, accommodating and nothing is too much trouble. They provide comprehensive and constructive feedback. Lessons online are so easy to access and my daughter navigates this well. More...

My son has been attending Kip McGrath since April 2024, he has improved loads and really enjoys more so than he does school. The tutors are fantastic so lovely and helpful, they encourage the children so much which boosts their confidence no end. During the first assessment an issue with how my son processes words was picked up, and so we had an appointment with an ophthalmologist was made and he now has to wear coloured lenses. My son is in year 5 and this has never been picked up by his school. I cannot praise the center enough. Thank you for all your ongoing support. More...

My daughter has been attending Kip Mcgrath for a few years now. She started off very weak in English and covid had set alot of children back in their learning, my daughter being one of them. She came to the center in year 3 and couldn't read or write confidently. She was working on phonetically sounding out words when she first came. She is now in year 5 going on yr 6 has since grown very confident in English with support from her tutor at kip. Her anxieties in learning are now overcome with high self esteem and enjoys coming to the center to work on improving even more. She has seen Lee (her tutor) as a friend she enjoys talking to. Jaaya has been taking lessons in the center as well as online and has earned various medals for her achievements, which is very encouraging. Her reading stage has improved lots and now doing age related comprehension work and writing in full sentences. I am so proud of how far she has come and all thanks to the incredible staff at Kip Mcgrath.the staff are so inclusive, adapting and supportive. Thankyou for teaching, supporting and helping my child grow confidence in English and as a person. More...

This is so odd - my comment on one of your posts keeps “disappearing”. No matter how many times I paste it in again it goes! During the day it disappears almost immediately but if posted in the evening it manages to stay until about 9 the following morning. Just can’t figure out what’s happening!! So - I’ll just post it here and maybe I’ll have more luck in getting an answer from you 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 Thanking you in anticipation! I checked out your blog and am curious as to the difference in how you present the GCSE v NAT 5 timetables. NAT 5 intro; For a comprehensive compendium…I cordially invite you to peruse the SQA website…Therein, you shall discover meticulously curated timetables… blah blah blah Contrast that with the straightforward GCSE intro; The GCSE exams are scheduled to commence Monday 6th May… etc. Why??

Very poor computer platform - any problems are always blamed on franchisees or students equipment etc As previous reviews have mentioned, all they are interested in is making large amounts of money from parents and franchisees alike, by cramming in the maximum amount of students. Education is not their priority, performance criteria is just based on numbers alone, not on the standard of tuition delivered. I also know that a large number of these reviews are not genuine - obviously many companies do this, but I would've hoped for a bit more honesty from those in education... More...

My Y11 daughter needed grade 6 English to access the A Levels she wanted, but she had lost her way with English during the pandemic, and had been really struggling. She started at Kip McGrath and had 6 months of tutoring with Sue. Not only did she get the results she needed, but she also rediscovered her confidence, rediscovered her love of English, and has now even enrolled to study A Level English. Her own words this week were: "Tutoring did so much more for me than just getting the 6 I needed." Kip McGrath can make a huge difference to confidence and progress, and can open up new opportunities ahead, as it has for my daughter. I highly recommend having tutoring with them. More...

Today has been the last session for my son with Naz and Ian at Sheffield Handsworth after a couple of years working with my son the progress he has made is amazing to see. He started off being unable to read and write realising he has dyslexia his writing was unreadable back to front and as for reading he just refused and got frustrated and he was so far behind for his age. Now a year 6 and just got his SAT results and he has got amazing scores never let them stress him and just gave it all his best shot and now he's set for secondary school. If it wasn't for kip mcgrath he wouldn't be where he's is now settled calm and confident and believes in himself it's amazing to see can't thank Naz and Ian enough 100% recommend 100% worth every penny More...

Absolutely fantastic centre. Naz from Sheffield East has transformed my son from a shy self doubting child who hated maths, to someone who now gives everything a go and has come on leaps and bounds! He’s taking his SATS soon and the nerves are starting to kick in, but he’s literally doubled his scores since going to Kip. I’m so greatful for all the support and love he’s shown while there. He’s achieving wonderful things now and it’s heart warming to see his confidence grow. Thankyou! More...

My daughter was with Kip two and half years , At the start it was really good she got so much help her tutor was so lovely couldn’t have asked for a better tutor but Kip kept adding more kids to her session my daughter was lucky to get 10-15 mins out the hour also had a lot of trouble getting logged on missing time on the sessions ,I emailed them last-night to raise my concerns and explain my child’s needs which they know about the reply was shocking basely if your not happy pay £68 a lesson for your child to have more time or just leave then ,it’s all about money they do not have the child’s best interest at heart at all . I emailed them back my daughter notice ,my daughter was due on her lesson lastnight and again tutor couldn’t get on kept kicking her out so my daughter did not get her lesson I will not receive a refund you never do they will say the session will be sent as homework .

Please improve the communication. I was looking for 1-2-1 sessions from the very beginning and was very clear to that. My daughter had few sessions as requested and then more children were during the same session. I am very dissapointed as no one informed me or not even included in the contract that these are a group sessions.
