About Kip McGrath Ashton-In-Makerfield

Kip McGrath has been the leader in tutoring for almost 50 years, focusing on the foundations of English, reading, spelling, comprehension and maths. The Ashton directors are Mark and Elaine Dixon who are passionate about empowering children and developing their confidence to help them succeed on their educational journey.

We provide individualised learning programmes to children aged 5-16 to target their specific needs.

Our sessions are designed to teach in small groups of up to 5 students, helping them to catch up, keep up and extend their learning. Lessons are 60 minutes in length and include one-to-one attention with a qualified teacher who holds an enhanced DBS and safeguarding certificate.

We are Ofsted registered which means we can accept payments through the tax-free childcare scheme, childcare vouchers and universal credit.

By using our proven methods and techniques, we can help your child to improve their results and boost their confidence. Book a FREE assessment today
