Having gained a degree in biochemistry from Oxford University and a PGCE from Bristol University, I have spent 35 years teaching chemistry and science to 'A'-level standard and beyond. I have worked in a variety of different types of secondary schools.I am therefore very familiar with the requirements for GCSE and A-level exams. In addition to working in comprehensive, grammar and independent schools, I have provided private tuition services both independently and through agencies. I have experience of working with adults and home tutored students as well as those in traditional education.
