Universal and sustainable resources which can be picked up by a teacher at any level of experience. Each lesson has been tweaked over years of experience teaching at a sixth form college. Students have enjoyed the lessons and achieved amazing results. All of my powerpoints have a colour scheme, bold imagery and the same font throughout - because style is important! I hope that these resources will save you time and free up your energy to make teaching more fun.
