I am a physics teacher and have been for over 20 years. I have a successful record of helping students reach beyond their own expectations. I love my job and besides teaching and supporting physics activities in the school, I play an active role in supporting extra-curricular activities in the house system.

I have worked in a range of contexts in the UK across both the maintained and independent sectors. I have also provided support to the British Council as an international educational consultant.

The goal of the book is to provide a scaffolded learning approach to each topic that starts with simple gap-fill or multiple choice question but then moves through a staged progression that leads to open-ended questions that students find particularly challenging. The strength of this series of books over others is that there are much more practice questions available with worked-solutions so students and teachers can monitor progression.

I am committed to other areas of the curriculum and speak Spanish fluently, German (fairly fluently and Portuguese ( Not at all fluently!) and hope to have the opportunity to write in a context that explores these interests as well.

The Exam Practice Books and Revision Guide series were written in collaboration with Alessio Bernadelli, a brilliant physicist. They also, offer on-line resources and guidance for students that provide exam tips and guidance to stretch themselves to reach the highest level of achievement.
