A Newcastle Economics and Politics graduate with an A* in A-level Economics and TEFL teaching experience in Italy, Milly uses positive praise to make learning fun and accessible.
Milly won an academic scholarship to Millfield School, where she achieved an A* in A-level Economics with full marks in her second-year exams. She studied Economics and Politics at Newcastle University and later completed an MSc in social work with children and families at the University of Bedfordshire, with a Distinction for her dissertation.
Milly comes from a family of teachers. At school she was selected to support struggling GCSE Maths students, helping them beat their predicted grades, and at university she was a peer mentor on her course. After gaining her TEFL qualification with Trinity College London, she taught English to adults and children in Italy for two years, including Economics and Business lecturers at the University of Cagliari. She has also supported primary pupils one-to-one in West London, preparing them for KS1 and KS2 SATs.
Milly has found that positive praise and encouragement help children become passionate about learning. She gets to know what motivates each pupil, explains difficult ideas simply with real-life examples, and creates resources to help pupils improve, with a wealth of experience supporting those who are struggling.
