I am fairly new to teaching as I spent 14 years as a forensic scientist. I love making resources for my department and so far I have created several GCSE biology units and I am now starting on the physics; which I'm really looking forward to. The pupils respond well to my PowerPoints and I do my best to make sure they are high quality and interesting with a wide range of engaging tasks. I always share them as a block not individually, so there will be 8+ whole lessons in each resource.
