Academic and Sports Mentoring for Children & Teens (Ages 8–18)

Academic and sports mentoring at Aspirio provides personalised 1:1 support for ambitious children and teenagers aged 8–18. I work with young people to build confidence, resilience, focus, and emotional control — helping them perform well at school, in sport, and through life’s pressures.

Academic Performance Mentoring

Academic mentoring supports children and teenagers who are capable but feeling overwhelmed, anxious, unmotivated, or under pressure at school.

Sports Performance Mentoring & Mindset Coaching

Sports performance mentoring supports young athletes who want to feel calmer, more confident, and more consistent under pressure.

Wellbeing for Academic & Sports Performance

Wellbeing sits at the heart of all mentoring at Aspirio. Many young people struggle not because they lack ability, but because stress, anxiety, or pressure is getting in the way.

Walk & Talk Mentoring

For Students Who Think Best in Motion

Walk & Talk mentoring offers the same 1:1 support as online or seated sessions, delivered in a relaxed outdoor setting. It suits young people who think more clearly while moving or find traditional sessions intense.

These sessions help students:

Feel calmer and less pressured
Open up more naturally
Regain focus during stressful periods

Walk & Talk mentoring is available by arrangement in Bath and the surrounding areas, and occasionally when I travel to work with families.

Based in Bath, I support families across the UK and internationally through online mentoring, with in-person sessions available where appropriate.

Mentoring Designed Around Your Child

Academic & Performance Mentoring Designed Around Them

Every child’s journey is unique. That’s why I offer personalised academic and sports mentoring—designed to build confidence, sharpen focus, and help young people thrive under pressure, whether in the classroom, on the field, or during exams.

What Families Say About Aspirio

Our Happy Clients

If you’re looking for academic and sports mentoring that makes a real difference, I’d love to help your child succeed.

"Matthew was sceptical at the start , asking how will this help me. I asked him to give it a chance. After session 1 Matthew was buzzing and had techniques to help him deal with the 'bad shots' that happen in a round. Session 2 in Penina. Matthew kept composed after a "bad shot" and didn't allow his full round to fall apart. 2 under handicap rounds Session 3. Penina. Review of 2 rounds and ficus for r3. Matthew was joint 1st net Recognisable progress with routine and reset, which was commented on by others who have known him for years. Kylie , I recognise that you care for each young golfer and there own development needs. Reports are detailed with useful actions to take forward. Parents sessions were helpful to acknowledge our role in their progress and recognise that your need to create a healthy and individual relationship with your child's golf journey. We look forward to continuing to work with you and excited consistent progress."

"We were introduced to Kylie through Junior Tour Scotland to help our son with the mental side of golf. He has had a combination of sessions including on course and one to one (face to face and online). Kylie is very easy to talk to and quickly picks up on potential discussion points and issues. She is great at explaining and ensuring understanding and follows up with a detailed report which is great for reflection. Kylie has quickly built a great rapport with our son and has given him some useful tools to help him cope with pressure situations on the golf course. We are delighted with the support and guidance Kylie has provided and with the impact it has had in a short time; we can’t recommend Kylie enough."

Emma Gordon

“My son Ben first met Kylie while on a golf trip with Junior Tour Scotland. Kylie was very professional and personable, giving Ben the confidence to speak openly with her about any subject he felt he needed help with. Kylie helped give Ben the practical steps needed to enhance his mindset and focus which in turn improves performance when it comes to competing. I would highly recommend Kylie if your child is looking to gain confidence within themselves. Ben will certainly be back for more sessions.”

Wullie middler

“I have learnt so much more about my own golf thanks to Aspirio. I am looking forward for what’s to come for the season ahead!”

Carla Morris

“My 18 year old son has now had 3 sessions with Kylie and he can’t recommend her enough in his words “Kylie is worth every penny” he comes away from each session feeling very positive and motivated. Kylie is very approachable and down to earth, after each session Kylie provides detailed written reports. We can’t thank Kylie enough we are looking forward to season 2026 and would highly recommend Kylie.”

Jillian Smyth

“Kylie was just what we were looking for ! My 14 year old son plays competitive golf and has benefited from sessions with Kylie focusing on mindset, nutrition, routines and consistency. My son looks forward to the online sessions and finds Kylie very easy to talk to. We are looking forward to applying this learning on the golf course this season! Many thanks Kylie, highly recommend.”

Susan Clark

“Kylie was recommended to me as a mentor for my 15 year old daughter to help her with the mental side of playing golf. Kylie took the time to listen to my daughter and ourselves to tailor meetings to best encourage and support her mentally not only on the golf course but with school work and life in general. Sessions have been a mixture of online and on course which has meant Kylie travelling up to Scotland for the face to face meetings. After each session a detailed written mentoring feedback report is shared with information on reviewing previous goals, discussion points and ongoing targets. Kylie is down to earth, friendly, approachable and a good listener. She has quickly formed a positive, supportive relationship with my daughter who has made good progress already in the 6 weeks they have been working together. Kylie’s rates are very fair and a lot cheaper than others who offer a similar service. I can’t recommend Kylie enough.”

Jennifer MacAlpine

“I have known Kylie for several years, and throughout that time, she has always shown the utmost professionalism. She fosters excellent relationships with her students and will always go the extra mile, resulting in well-prepared students who trust her implicitly”.

Sam

“Kylie is extremely good at communicating with children in her care. She listens, supports and leads with enthusiasm to gain the best performances. She is empathetic and caring, achieving high standards in all her work.”

Zoe

“Kylie was an inspiring mentor for my daughter during the tricky teenage years when she struggled with low self-confidence, self-esteem and body image. With Kylie’s amazing support, my daughter not only overcame her issues but also had the tools to manage them. She started to believe in herself and her abilities. Kylie’s kind, relatable and empathetic attitude made all the difference. She helped my daughter lay the foundations for becoming a successful young woman both academically and athletically, guiding her as she continued to pursue her dream of becoming a track and field star one day. Our gratitude for Kylie’s support and guidance is immeasurable.”
