I have taught for over 17 years in the UK and internationally including as the Head of the English and Media Faculty at The Alice Smith School, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I am now living and working back in the UK. I have worked in a top ten UK independent school and currently still teach in a school part time in beautiful North Yorkshire. Alongside teaching, I'm pursuing my interests in Positive Psychology and the role of coaching in education, alongside establishing Miles Learning. For further information regarding my work with educators in this area please go to www.victoriamiles.uk
During tuition sessions, as well as offering personalised English teaching, I integrate academic coaching to help students set their own goals, be self-motivated and grow in confidence. I am more than happy to help support students across their studies focusing on areas such as self-belief, organisation and revision skills to ensure students are happy and can thrive in their learning.
