An evidence informed science teacher with a passion for teaching. Providing quality lessons for all science teachers to reduce your stress and workload. All my lessons have embedded methods using cognitive science, retrieval practice and priming to help students move information from their working memory to their long term memory. But most importantly the lessons are fun and engaging to bring a love of science to the classroom :-)
