Emily Hughes

 

Emily Hughes left her teaching job of 15 years when it was taking a toll on her mental health. She realised that, while there’s a huge industry supporting students (tutors, revision guides, websites etc), there was nothing to support parents. She used her expertise to found The Parent Guide to GCSE to help parents feel confident about supporting their teen through the exam years.

 

Emily says:

“I wish mental disabilities weren’t dismissed just because no-one can actually SEE how much you’re struggling.”

Read her story to learn about receiving an ADHD diagnosis late in life, how Emily had to reconfigure her business when the pandemic threw the UK education system into chaos, and why her dad’s garage-based business is her greatest inspiration.
