After obtaining a physics BSc (Hons) at Manchester University, I gained a Post-Graduate Certificate in Education at Sussex University and qualified as a secondary physics teacher in 1993.
Since then I have worked in schools in the UK and Spain and as a one-to-one tutor. Between 2006 and 2013, I was head of a very vibrant physics department in a large upper school in Bedfordshire in the UK where around 100 students were studying A level physics at any one time with excellent success rates.
I am currently living in Oxfordshire and have been teaching exclusively online since 2014. All this has made me very highly experienced in teaching A level and GCSE physics, as well as IB and iGCSE physics.
I have a PhD in nuclear fusion and also currently work as a research physicist.
