Welcome to Guiding Young Minds, a tutoring company working across Wirral and Cheshire West, whose focus is to support primary school children to reach their full potential whether that's to pass the Grammar School tests (11+) or to give themselves the best start they can in readiness for High School.
Our current courses are:
- 11+ (for children in Year 4 or Year 5)
- SATS boosters (for children in Year 6)
- Covid catch up
- Increase confidence ready for High School (Year 5 or Year 6)
I also tutor pupils in Years 7 and 8 who may require additional support following the transition from Primary School.

Kerry is an excellent Tutor, who has supported both my daughters with the Upton Hall and 11+ exams. What makes her exceptional and different from others is the emotional and wellbeing support she incorporates into the sessions. I was keen to find tutoring that helped my daughters to feel comfortable sitting the exam's. Kerry also provided tutoring to my eldest daughter to prepare her for high school which made such a difference to her confidence.

Kerry has tutored my daughter for the last 12 months in preparation for the 11+. She provided our daughter with the best possible preparation for the 11+, told her everything she should expect on the day of the test and made sure that everything in the test was covered during the 12 months leading up to it. Kerry is warm, friendly and incredibly approachable meaning that my daughter loved working with her. On the day of the test my daughter came out feeling happy which is testament to how well Kerry prepared her. I would whole heartedly recommend Kerry.

My daughter attended tutoring sessions with Kerry. She made amazing progress during this time. Her confidence with her work and problem solving developed significantly. My daughter commented "Kerry is kind, understanding and helps you when you are stuck on problems." My daughter was always eager to attend her tutoring sessions.

Kerry tutored my daughter for the 11+, helping her to pass with flying colours and get into her first choice grammar school. Kerry is friendly, professional and very knowledgeable - her experience as a teacher (and a mum) is very clear and she knew how to get the best out of my daughter. Would highly recommend

My daughter has been attending tutoring sessions with Kerry. She has made amazing progress during this time. Her teachers at school have commented that she is now working at greater depth in mathematics and her confidence with her work and problem solving has grown. My daughter commented "Kerry is kind, understanding and helps you when you are stuck on problems." My daughter is always eager to attend her tutoring sessions which is lovely to see.
