Meet our Centre Manager,
Carly Johnston

Carly Johnston – Re-training to be a teacher was the best decision I ever made! I completed my PGCE in 2013 and my NQT year in 2014. Since then, I have worked in local primary schools, secondary schools, and Carlisle College. Alongside full-time work I started to work for Kip Carlisle in 2017. In 2019 the previous owner retired, and I jumped at the chance to buy the franchise. Since then, we have gone from strength to strength. Starting with around 30 lessons per week to now teaching 350 plus lessons with 15 members of staff.

"I cannot recommend Carly at Kip McGrath enough! She was amazing at explaining every concept I struggled with and made everything seem easy. Thank you so much Carly! "

"My son uses the tutor lessons to help boost his maths as the large classes in school are a disadvantage to him. As the classes at Kip McGrath Carlisle are small and tailored to the individual he feels happier to ask for help when he needs it. "
