My name is Beth MIller I am currently under the job title as Skills English and Maths tutor based at Liverpool and Manchester MPCT.

Before this role I have seven years experience in the professional performing arts industry where I have taught infants, children, young adults and adults. I thoroughly enjoyed this role as I could demonstrate my skills to others and observe first hand the positive impact physical education and performance can have on everyone.

I currently now continue to teach at local performing arts school in merseyside where I teach evening classes. I also get the opportunity to showcase my students in performances around the UK and enter them in competitions.

In my own time I LOVE all aspects of fitness and I am currently training to enter my first body building competition under the fantastic teachings/training of Mark Hunt and Kathryn McGovern.
