HI, I’M TENILLE BENTLEY.

I’m the founder and CEO of The Emotional Literacy & Mindset Academy. I’m an educator, author and multi-award winning business woman, recognised by the Prime Minister for my work in the community.

My passion?  Supporting our community with the tools I wish I could have had access to as a child. As a sustainable approach to building emotionally intelligent adults of the next generation and supporting the ones we already have by up-skilling them.

Because if we have a world of adults with emotional awareness and literacy could you imagine just how different the world might be?

As a child I experienced severe anxiety and emotional traumas. However, emotional literacy wasn’t in the narrative in my generation. Today, we have evolved, science has caught up and we now understand the important role emotional intelligence plays in our every day lives, not to mention the incredible benefits to academic learning.
