"I've loved trying the new recipes and I really love the 'freestyle section' as it showed just how versatile the dishes can be. I also really enjoyed the organisation/mindset part too. I never knew I needed an organised freezer, but it's fab! No more rifling through unidentified frozen objects and trying to work out what they are!! Thanks Gemma for reigniting my love of cooking."

Hey, I'm Gem

I’ve spent 12 years teaching thousands of busy people to become confident, organised and creative home cooks. In that time I've written and filmed hundreds of recipes and how-tos.

I love teaching in person but wanted to open my lessons up to people who struggle with childcare, their unpredictable calendars or the cost and time of attending in-person lessons.

Now you can access all my online lessons and hundreds of exclusive recipes and meal plans in one place. So you can learn everything you need and start putting your new skills into action in the time you'd usually spend cooking.

The filmed lessons mean you can see every tiny detail, so you can confidently recreate everything in your own time.

The downloadable written recipes and meal plans will become your trusted go-tos for years to come.

I really hope you can say yes today so you can start to see the difference too.

"I didn’t think I needed this! I have 200 cookbooks and think I know a fair amount about food. However, I now realise that I was just good at following recipes. These lessons have taught me to really think about flavour, has made me so much more confident to adapt things to my taste and really has reignited my love of cooking (which had increasingly become a chore)."

“"These lessons are so much more than recipes, you are somehow able to magically lay the foundations for anyone to become an instinctive, confident cook without even knowing it.”

Is it time for you to...

Become a calm, creative, instinctive and confident cook who enjoys mealtimes.

Improve your knife skills and learn essential cooking techniques while making delicious meals - all from the comfort of your own home at a time and pace that suits you. 

Amaze yourself and the people you cook for when you learn the quick ways to balance flavour, texture and temperature to easily elevate every meal.

“I really appreciate your style of cooking and your style of teaching. It's so natural that it feels like you've got a mate round talking it through! I've learnt so many tips and tricks that I now do naturally"

My online lessons are structured so that you can learn, practice and develop skills at a time and pace that suits you.

With every lesson you'll learn a new cooking technique and recipe as well as the organisation skills to make your time in the kitchen efficient and rewarding.

Your pre-recorded lessons and printable downloads are available on my members-only website as soon as you sign up, so you watch them whenever you need to. 

Once you sign up, if you need extra help, you can pay for one to one calls with me. Use them to ask me anything and get my personalised support as often as you need to.

In every lesson I'll take you one step closer to becoming a calm, creative and confident cook. 

"I'm so pleased I signed up, I've never spent money on something like this for myself before but the timing was perfect. You can tell how much work has gone into everything as it is so easy to use and really shows an insight into how busy families like ours need to cook!"

Questions?

Yes you can pay monthly or annually.

In a word - nope.

I've taken a few courses that were all live tutorials and found it hard to fit in with the madness of a busy week. I fell behind and felt frustrated.

So I've purposefully designed these lessons so that you can do them at times and pace that suit you.

The lessons being pre-recorded means I can also ensure amazing production values and ensure every point that I know you will need is covered and can be seen in detail.

I get it, I'm a busy working mum and I know that taking time for anything new has to really be worth it. This will be. It is designed to be flexible to fit the time you have.

You won't be made to feel frustrated or overwhelmed because that's rubbish. I'll help you make the most of all the awesome stuff you'll have access to.

You can dip in and out whenever suits you. Some members pop a regular time in their diary to watch a couple of videos. Other people pop in whenever they're in a rut and need new ideas. 

I'll send you regular members-only newsletters to remind you of specific recipes to try that suit the time of year or particular occasions.

You can cancel at any time. Once you cancel you will lose access to the members-only site.

If you are on the fence about if this will work for you, please drop me a message via my contact form and I can answer any questions.

You'll receive a welcome email on the day you sign up. That email contains links to all your lessons. 

As a small business I hope you can appreciate the impact if people share the work I create for my paying members. 

I'd love you to share the videos and recipes with people in your house but your membership will be cancelled if I see that your login is being used by multiple devices.

The recipes and videos are saved on a members only website. You are not able to share your login with anyone else.

You'll get access to a wide range of vegetarian, meat and fish recipes in the lessons. 

Every recipe comes with suggestions for how to make it work for vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free and nut-free eaters. I'll also be on hand to answer questions about any other restrictions you're dealing with.

Some demonstrations will include meat/fish and if that bothers you, I can let you know which bits to fast forward/skip through.

If you have a diet that excludes certain foods, this will be so useful as it will give you the confidence to know how to make every meal delicious and get the most out of any substitutions you use without feeling you're missing out.

Absolutely. I designed it for all our busy lives.

You will have access to the materials for as long as you are a member. 

The course materials (videos and PDFs) will be hosted in a members only website. When you sign up you will be asked to set up a username and password to access this. 

You'll receive a welcome email on the day you sign up. In it will be links to a welcome page with your lessons. 

You'll also get a link to book your 3x 1-2-1 calls.

You will also receive emails every week for 12 weeks to check in and keep you motivated.

Of course! My sign up process is in GB£ but you can choose your currency as part of the process.

I've had people who've taken my courses in the US, Dubai, Asia, Australia and throughout Europe. All the recipes come with US and UK measurements, ingredient names and temperatures.

This is for any level of cook - that may sound vague but my 12+ years of teaching mixed ability classes means that I demonstrate and explain what I'm sharing in a way that allows everyone to get value from it. Often the people who have been cooking the longest are the ones who don't realise they have not been doing things in the most efficient or instinctive way!

In every recipe I demonstrate, I start from scratch. There will be no pre-peeled onions or ready chopped things. 

If you are a really experienced cook, this will help you get out of a rut, expand your repertoire, freestyle with confidence and learn new ways to tackle things you've always done without questioning why. 

If you are a less confident cook you'll have the reassurance of my support and experience as your confidence grows, knowing that what you cook will work. 

Whatever your level, investing this money and time in yourself to learn in a fun and supportive environment will change the way you cook.

How lovely. I'd love that. 

Please drop me an email and I'll explain the options. 

Families come in all shapes and sizes and with a huge range of dietary needs. Everything I'll teach you will work whether you're cooking for 1 or 10 people, I'll explain how to adjust things and will share practical tips to help you cook for whoever is at your table (or sofa).
