praise for switched on!

Loved by our learners

The Switched On! course has been thoroughly enjoyable from exploring values and forgotten passions to mastering positivity. With an experienced, supportive mentor, the course is well organised and engaging. My 16 year old daughter has loved it!

As a parent of a teen doing the Switched On! course, I love the fact that experts are giving us their knowledge and showing us ideas we haven't even considered yet. It will save us so much time , effort and worry when my daughter is choosing where and what to do next.
Angela LittleSwitchedON! Mum
Clare has had an immensely positive impact on Ellie's confidence. I am so very grateful for the skills and belief Clare has been able to instil in my daughter and am very grateful for the difference this has made, for Ellie and for our relationship. Thank you.

About Clare

Clare is an education expert with over 15 years’ teaching experience, runner up of the 2019 MPower Legacy Award, international best-selling author and Founder of SwitchedON!, a cutting-edge global education platform offering inspirational education and parenting solutions.

Clare has spoken on 2 radio shows, 4 international summits, the Teen Toolbox podcast and Brand Builders TV about redefining education beyond academic success with her unique methodology, to support kids, teens and parents.

After 12 years of ticking boxes and battling the system in mainstream education, she burned out, becoming seriously ill, depressed and hit rock bottom.  She had to find an alternative to do what she loves – teaching, in a way that makes an impactful positive difference and allows the potential of each and every one of the children and teen she teaches to shine.

In 2016 she launched her well-being business, online programme and wrote her first book, “How to Have a Positive and Empowering Pregnancy”.  Subsequently, Clare started the Mind, Baby Soul movement, running her first public event, “Loving Mothers”.

In 2020 she launched “SwitchedON!” in response to the situation that parents found themselves in, who had to suddenly educate their children at home.  Her Facebook group, the Home Education Hub, has gone from strength to strength, supporting a global community with a huge range of resources, trainings and experts.  During the summer of 2020, Clare collaborated with children from around the world on another book, “Lollipops and Rainbows – Teaching Literacy with Soul”.

Clare is passionate about giving families the opportunity to learn in a way that unlocks their passions and potential in her unique online learning academy, SwitchedON!.
