Lucy was born in 1994 and graduated with a First Class degree in Marketing Communications fro the University of Westminster. It was on a failed placement year that she fell into teaching English, which quickly became one of her greatest passions. At the age of 21, whilst completing her final semester at university, she took out a £500 loan to set up her Youtube channel 'English with Lucy'. It quickly became her full time profession and she now helps millions of people improve their English for free each month. She is passionate about showing students that they do not have to be spoon-fed - they should go out and find things out for themselves using the many wonderful resources that the modern world offers.
