Millie
English Teacher
Graduated with a first-class English degree from the University of Cambridge and a Distinction in MFA Theatre Directing from the University of London.
Former secondary school English and Drama teacher with experience working with SEN students and second language English learners. Three years of tutoring experience working on 11+ through to GCSE English, as well as spelling, grammar, speaking, listening, and reading support for younger learners.
Teaching style:
I believe that the best lessons are responsive to the needs and interests of the students and propelled by curiosity and enthusiasm. I am passionate about my subject and meeting students where they are. Though I expect students to be hard working and attentive, I seek to create an encouraging environment where students can grow their skills and confidence through a relaxed and discursive approach. In my class, students evaluate their own work, and that of their peers, to identify their areas for improvement and collaborate with me to achieve their exam targets.
