Kip McGrath Newburn and Westerhope

The Kip McGrath - Newburn & Westerhope Centre is based in Newburn, Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. Here, qualified and experienced teachers provide professional tutoring in English and maths for primary and secondary individuals up to GCSE level.

About us

At Kip McGrath, we provide an initial assessment, to determine exactly how a child is performing, identifying strengths and weaknesses, the results of which are discussed parents/carers/teachers. From this assessment every student will have a tailor-made programme created to suit their individual learning needs. We also provide additional support for students who are home-schooled or those eligible for EHCP or pupil premium funding.

Helen Armstrong, the Centre Director, is a qualified teacher with over 35 years of experience. She is passionate about children’s well-being and about helping children of all ages and all abilities to eliminate any barriers to learning and reach their full potential.
