‘Thank you so much for all your help last year in enabling me to achieve my highest potential grade. You broke the topics down in a way that made it easy to understand and instilled a passion for politics in the end, even despite being a subject I was most concerned and knew the least about at the start of a levels.’
‘With me being an international student, Millie supplied mine and my school’s needs of dealing with a foreign application process, along with showing how to explore that fact on my personal statement. Regarding my university choices, Millie emphasized to have a balance between a safety option and one as a high goal. This was crucial so that I not only felt secure, but also had the opportunity to reach my maximum potential. With her help I was able to create a solid UCAS application that is already resulting in offers from top universities.’
