Every young person is different. That's why I don't use a 'one-size-fits-all' approach. Here's how we get started - and how I make sure your son or daughter gets exactly the support they need!
STEP 1
Free discovery call
We start with a no-obligation 15-minute call — usually with the parent, or the student themselves if they prefer. I'll listen to what's going on, ask a few questions, and get a feel for what's needed. No pressure, no sales pitch. Just an honest conversation.
STEP 2
A tailored proposal — just for them
Within a day or two, I'll send a suggested plan outlining the sessions I'd recommend. Most students need 2–3 sessions. Some need just one. I'll be upfront about what I think — and why.
Coaching can cover: Career direction & options · A-level or degree choices · University applications & UCAS Personal Statements · Degree vs Apprenticeship · CV writing · Interview skills & mock interviews · Assessment Centre preparation and more!
STEP 3
Sessions that work around you
Sessions usually last 60–90 minutes and are available in person (Cobham, Surrey) or online via video call — so wherever you are in the UK (or world!), we can work together. Between sessions, students are given practical tasks to help them make real progress, not just talk about it.
STEP 4
Confidence, clarity — and results
By the end of our sessions, students leave knowing what they want, how to go after it, and feeling genuinely ready. Whether that's acing an interview, submitting a Personal Statement they're proud of, or simply having a clear plan of their next steps — that's what we're working towards. Of course, many of them secure job and/or university offers too!
Already know what you want help with?
If you already have a clear idea of the support you or your child needs, you may prefer one of my structured 1-1 workshops. These are focused sessions designed to tackle specific, common challenges — such as CVs, LinkedIn, applications, interviews, assessment centres or personal statements — with clear objectives and practical outcomes. You can find these under the Events page and choose the workshop that best fits the next step.
Who I work with:
Students from Year 11 upwards — Sixth Formers, school leavers, current university students, and recent graduates. Parents are welcome to be as involved as their son or daughter is comfortable with.
Not a student? If you're a career changer, returning to work after a break, or just feeling stuck or lacking confidence to tackle job applications or interviews — visit CareerSpringboard to see how I can help you too.
