Ian Moore

I am currently doing a PhD in radiopharamcy in Dresden, Germany.
I have a First class Master's Degree in Chemistry (MSci) from Queen's University Belfast and an Outstanding PGCE for teaching Secondary School Science from the University of Manchester.
My Secondary education was at Regent House Grammar School - Newtownards, where I did A-levels in Chemistry, Maths and Physics and AS-levels in English and Further Maths, achieving all A's (the top grade at the time).

I have always been interested and enthusiastic in Science and was fortunate in having inspirational teachers. This gave me the appreciation of patience and the ability to explain scientific concepts in a simple way.
I have completed a PGCE training for teaching Science to KS4 and Chemistry to A-level.
