Ian
I am a PGCE qualified science tutor working in Oxfordshire (specialising in Chemistry and Physics to A-level with experience of teaching and tutoring AQA and OCR courses).
Since graduating in 2000 I worked in academic and commercial research across many areas of chemistry. I currently undertake commercial research in structural biology, helping design the latest pharmaceuticals.
I enjoy sharing my extremely wide ranging technical and teaching expertise and enthusiasm for the subject with the next generation of scientists.
