Would you like me to come and teach you in your home kitchen?
I’m opening my calendar to a small number of clients who are ready to transform the way they cook in totally bespoke lessons.
Whatever your current ability, you'll fast track your cooking in the familiar surroundings of your home kitchen with me by your side.
I promise laughs, chats and delicious food as we work together. Whatever level you are, whatever frustrates you about cooking, I’ve got you.
I’ll create personalised lessons. I'll bring all the ingredients. We’ll cook together so you get hands-on experience with me by your side.
You’ll be left feeling accomplished and inspired and with meals to eat that week - freeing up time and energy for all the other stuff life throws at you.
I can also organise your kitchen and help set you up with the right tools and kit. And if you'd like to invite a friend to join you, we can do that too.
Sound good?
The biggest impact I can have is being next to you
This is something I can only do with a very small number of clients, so to make sure it is the right plan for for you, we'll have a call to chat about how this can fit into your diary and dig into what you need from me.
After that call, if we're both excited to work together, you'll pay for your first lessons, we'll schedule them in and I'll get busy creating your first lesson.
''Like a Personal Trainer for cooking''
One of my clients puts it perfectly. Our lessons together have helped her achieve what she never thought she would on her own.
She doesn't have to think or prepare, I turn up with all the ingredients and a personalised recipe booklet.
We cook, we have fun and I leave her with food to eat that night for dinner and lots of goodies in the fridge and freezer.
She can go back to her busy day having made time to do something positive for herself and her family.
She's now enjoying cooking, her family are eating a much wider range of foods together and their dining table is a happy, sociable place. Oh, and she has cut her food delivery bill in half.

When and where
I can come to your home for our cooking lessons in Cheshire and South Manchester. I currently have availability on weekdays between 12pm-4pm.
If you live further away, or need lessons at other times, book a call and we can chat through options.
Investment
For us to make real change, we'll work together for a minimum of 5 x 2 hour lessons.
The total cost is £1,497 (£299 per 2 hour lesson for 1 or 2 people).
This can be paid in three monthly payments of £499.
Your lessons can be scheduled weekly, or monthly, or we can use the hours in fewer, longer lessons. Whatever works best for you and your goals.

“I'm a lawyer and a mum of two. I wasn't interested in cooking and never learned much about it. But I have a family to feed and we like to entertain so I decided it was time to start. After taking private lessons with Gem for a few months, I am miles ahead of where I was! Gem is a terrific instructor; she has lots of great ideas for meals that are easy to make, provides detailed easy to follow instructions, and is very patient about teaching even the most basic skills. She is also very accommodating and I love that she offered to come to my house so we can have the lessons in my own kitchen with my own equipment and supplies.” - Sarah
“She understands the demands of busy families and has helped us find a lovely balance of great food with efficient preparation. I also love that she's taught us to organize our kitchen. My time with her has helped breathe new life, energy, and fun into a homecooked meal and has stopped cooking feel like a chore.” - Molly
“Cooking for my family while balancing work and the rest of life can be a challenge. But I'm so glad I invested in a course of lessons with Gem because now I can work around those challenges confidently. I know Gem's recipes will work, that they'll taste great and won't take too long to make. She got us out of our dinner ruts, and really changed the way we plan for the week. An added bonus is that we aren’t wasting food like we were before - everything gets eaten or is properly stored away for another meal in the future. I also have my kitchen impressively organized with all her helpful tips to reduce clutter and keep things to a minimum. The lessons have paid for thermselves now we hardly ever get take out or waste anything.” - Jackie
Hi, I'm Gemma but my friends call me Gem.
I’ve spent 12 years teaching thousands of busy people to become confident, organised and creative home cooks.
I love nothing more than the messages that start pinging onto my phone at dinner time, with my clients sharing meals they never dreamt they'd be able to make previously. And the cherry on the cake is when they tell me everyone in the house devoured it and they enjoyed making it.
If you are able to invest in working with me in person, I promise we'll have lots of fun and you'll be amazed at how quickly you transform the way you cook.
