Creative Courses
Our Mindful Doing workshops are carefully designed to create something some would consider an anomaly: a community for introverts. Limited to 12 spaces per session, we maintain a relaxed environment whilst guiding and supporting you to make a unique item. For us, the focus is largely on the process, rather than the outcome. It’s important for us both that there is no pressure to share (either introductions and ‘about me’, or your creations!) and you feel comfortable enough to explore creatively.

English Tuition
I am here to help! Tutoring is tailored to your specific English needs, and takes place in real life, through school, or online. 1-2-1 and small group tutoring are both easy to arrange. Need extra marking and feedback? No problem!

How Can I Help?
Looking for a local tutor in Bristol who specialises in offering high-quality, personalised English tuition? Or perhaps you are desperately trying to find out how to revise for English. Creative writing workshops might be more your thing. Perhaps you just want to get some reading recommendations. Well luckily, whichever of these best describes your situation, you're in the right place!
I'm Ellie: working in Bristol, South Gloucestershire and BANES, I offer English tutoring to students in KS3, KS4 and KS5. GCSE English Language and English Literature are the most popular qualifications I am hired to support students with. To date, I have worked in six secondary schools in the local area as a teacher of English, and a middle leader, as well as currently working for six local schools and for over ten private clients as a private tutor.
Creating enjoyable and effective revision and learning activities, courses and opportunities is another key focus of Grouty's Guide.
It's not all about school though. Education should be enjoyable for everyone, and that's why I've created my bookworm collection and my #flashinspo campaign, to ignite inspiration in all of you, whether you prefer to write, paint, draw or create. 2020 also marks the introduction of some exciting #flashinspo workshops help in creative spaces in and around the Bristol area - come along and see what sparks your imagination!
Accessible

Challenging
Our memberships are not limited - you select the learning that is right for you.

Engaging
There's a membership to suit everyone, whether you want to hone your writing skills or aim high with the challenge programme. All of our memberships include a range of activities and texts suited to a broad mix of learning styles.
