Experience
I have taught physics and general science at high school level for over 10 years now. I have also taught some maths and some electronics.
Teaching style
Student centered. I believe that it is essential for students to be able to play with physics, so a lot of my teaching resources are fun and practical based.
Awards & shining teacher moments
