Who is The Tutor Blueprint coaching for?

Are you a teacher feeling overworked, undervalued and underpaid? 

Do you carry guilt around never quite being there for your own family and friends?

Have you become aware that tuition as an industry is booming, but you have no idea how to position yourself in the market?

Are you already a tutor but your inbox is empty and the leads just aren't coming in?

What you need is a strategy, a step-by-step roadmap to success and an experienced coach supporting you all the way. 

 The Tutor Blueprint.

Hi, I'm Lorraine.png

I qualified as a teacher on the graduate trainee programme in 2003, and I was headhunted as Head of Department the following year.

 

I very quickly achieved a leadership position whilst also having four children and a marriage breakdown, and as you can imagine my health began to suffer.

 

In 2015, I decided I was no longer going to put other people's children before my own. I handed in my resignation with a vague idea that I would tutor instead.

But honestly it was bliss. I did all the school runs, turned up for all the plays, sports and parties. I was mum by day and teacher by night and it worked … until it didn't. 

​

I noticed I was taking on increasing numbers of one-to-one students and couldn't afford to turn people away and felt guilty if I did. Costs were rising. I needed to work more and more hours just to stay afloat. In 2022 I broke. There were no more hours in the day, I was working seven days a week and I could not go on. I started suffering with panic attacks and was so overwhelmed with how much I was doing. I was forced by my health to close my business. In that time I knew things had to change. I employed a business strategist, and when the doors reopened, the business had a completely new look. 

Let me show you how (1).png

I said no to one-to-one work. 

​

I said no to any Key Stage 3 work. 

​

I commenced working online as well as face-to-face.

​

I only ever taught in groups. 

With a clear strategy and roadmap, I replaced my salary in six months and doubled it in twelve. I made mistakes, but I continue to grow and nurture that business which now employs three people. By investing in myself as a business owner, I was able to shift my mindset and take myself seriously.

​

My life now finally has the perfect balance. I work on my business during school hours only and teach for eight hours a week (over just two nights). I don't work weekends ever. I'm still present and available for all family related events, and we now go on five-star holidays with upgraded flights!

​

But the best part of all was when my son said to me “Mum, I'm so proud of you.” I carved out the life I wanted and you can do it too. Don't get to breaking point. Don't make mistakes and waste time on strategies that simply won't work. Let me show you how.

Fortnightly Calls: You will have a fortnightly accountability call with me where we will review and plan your next steps.

Vault Access:  You have unlimited access to The Vault for 12 months which contains all the learning resources and videos to keep you propelling forwards.

Can I work this out for myself? 

​

Is this a waste of money? 

​

Will it actually work? 

Here's the truth. Yes, eventually you probably could manage it solo. But trust me when I say it will take you a lot of wrong turns, mistakes and frustration, plus endless hours of research in the huge wealth of knowledge CHASM OF INFORMATION & MISINFORMATION ?? out there.

 

I employed a business strategist and yes, she was brilliant. But she wasn't an expert in online tuition. But I am.

You see I've done this and I'm living proof that this works and I'm not the only one.

Joanne,
an online 11+ teacher.

I love Lorraine's no nonsense approach. She knows what works and guides you in how to trust the process. If you are prepared to show up and do the work, you will get results. I went from earning £50 an hour to £200! Now I can see how to make my business grow further. 

Jack,
a primary tutor. 

I never thought of running group tuition and worried that parents wouldn't buy it. But Lorraine teaches you how to sell. Not in a pushy way but genuinely showing the benefits of groups to parents. And to be honest, I prefer it too, it's more fun having my own mini classroom.

Nadia,
a secondary science teacher.

The mind-set training was transformative for me. Lorraine really makes you feel confident about your business and I stopped playing small and started to understand my value. I've now hit my first 4k month and have a clear strategy to make this consistent.

By signing up....

It's crucial for my business that my clients are happy. I will be asking for five-star reviews. So in order to establish if we are a good fit for each other, we need to jump on a call and get to know one another.

Transparency and integrity are intrinsic values of mine. So nothing is hidden.

This is great for flexibility if you're not ready to commit to timeframes plus if you are struggling and you wish to add on a 'Solved For You Session' with me you can!
