Jana Milki

A passionate education professional, with pre-and post-qualification experience of working with a diverse range of students in a variety of educational settings. I am committed to ensuring my students receive a first-class education experience and feel valued, safe, and happy in the school environment. I take immense pride in my work and in the delivery of engaging, high quality lessons, consistently promoting high standards within education.

I am self-motivated and capable of working independently but I also enjoy being part of an energised, successful team. I have a broad cultural awareness, through living and working in a diverse range of countries, and I am multi-lingual. I am fully committed to providing a wide range of learning opportunities for students, including extra-curricular activities.

I am also committed to my own continuing professional development in teaching and learning and I am constantly seeking to build on my existing skills and develop new learning strategies.
