EXCEL IN EXAMS - Key Persons

Miranda Banks is a performance psychologist with an extensive background in sports psychology as well as clinical and neuropsychology. Performance psychologists enable sports people, leaders of industry, and anyone who wishes to go from good to great, and achieve their goals as efficiently as possible. Essentially, Miranda can help you achieve your goals faster than if you were left to your own devices. Having worked extensively with Olympic and professional sport in Australia, Miranda realised that applying the principles of sports psychology for performance worked exceptionally well, not just for athletes and business leaders, but for students too. Not only that, students prefer the coaching style and down-to-earth approach that is typical of the sporting field. Miranda lectured in performance psychology at universities in Brisbane and Melbourne, Australia for several years, as well as guest lecturing at universities in Canada and the UK. It was during this time that she realised the challenges faced by students and started to develop her essay planning strategy. Her book, "Fitter, Faster, Stronger, Smarter: Training for the performance of life", was published by Wiley in 2007. In 2008 she returned to her native UK and continued to work with her three main client groups, sport, business and education, helping individuals and teams to achieve their best as efficiently as possible.
