I’ve been giving Maths grinds to school leaving nieces, nephews, and kids of friends for the last 4 years. I’ve also recently started helping coach my kids sports teams.

I’m circling this idea of helping the local youngsters help the local businesses get online with a Facebook page, website, Google Ads and Facebook Ads campaigns.
