About John J
Hi, I am John and have a very keen interest in science. I like to inspire students to take an interest in the subject, and also to want students to achieve the best possible grade they can. I am a fully qualified science teacher with a PhD in chemistry and a PGCE in science education. I have worked with and support students at many levels over the years from secondary school right up to PhD level. I have helped them to overcome their roadblocks holding them back and push on to achieve their desired outcomes. It is a great feeling when you see a student happy with achieving what they need to go on and pursue their own goals in life.
