They say time is the most valuable resource in this life, so I created Class Master - a one-stop-shop for science teachers who want to save time and increase student engagement in the classroom. As a scientist, teacher, and educational consultant with over 15 years of experience, I now teach children with SEMH needs and deliver development opportunities. I direct the Class Masters project to provide innovative and engaging educational resources and courses to improve teachers' work-life balance.
