Building a tutoring business - with Caroline Bowmer

Today we are joined by Caroline Bowmer, who left a 15 year career in science teaching in 2019 to start her own business, Alchemy Education, an online education company.

Caroline and her team use a transformative programme of tutoring, exam technique and mindset coaching to help students to reach their potential and get their best possible GCSE and A Level exam results.

We talk about:

Caroline’s teaching experience and how much she loved being a teacher
How grief can make you reconsider your career path
The need for flexible working when you have a young family
How teaching isn’t a very family friendly career
Building a tutoring business as a side project
Growing her business to replace and exceed her teaching salary
Managing a team of tutors
The importance of mindset and a strong support network
Recognising your transferable skills
Leaving teaching and building a life that is more balanced and rewarding
