\"\"Stephen Moore MA (Cantab), MEng, PGCE<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Having graduated from Trinity College, Cambridge with a Masters in Engineering, Stephen Moore started his working life with Ford Motor Company designing cars and qualifying as a Chartered Engineer in the process.\u00a0 Moving onto Mars Confectionery, Stephen became Chief Engineer of Chocolate where he worked for nearly 20 years.\u00a0 During this time, Stephen became increasingly involved with teaching young people and developing their skills, firstly as a black belt judo coach where he worked as a part of a close-knit team enabling a crop of teenagers to become national medallists and GB squad members.\u00a0 However, it was when he started leading school parties round the Slough confectionery site that Stephen\u2019s burgeoning interest in teaching blossomed and he realised that in fact, he was a teacher in all but name.<\/p>\n

Subsequently, Stephen took his professional teaching qualifications and started his new career as a Teacher of Mathematics at St Alban\u2019s High School for Girls before moving to Immanuel College as Second in the Mathematics Department. His popularity as a teacher and immense managerial experience led to Stephen moving on quickly to become Head of Mathematics at St Margaret\u2019s School in Bushey and within a year, Director of Studies.\u00a0 With the introduction of the new GCSE and A Level curriculum, Stephen has ensured that he has kept up to date developing his GCSE and A level knowledge of not only Mathematics but also Physics, successfully tutoring pupils in Oxbridge entrance examinations in both subjects.<\/p>\n

A passionate educator, Stephen\u2019s greatest enjoyment is putting the \u2018wow\u2019 back into pupils\u2019 learning. Keen to develop students\u2019 conceptual understanding, Stephen is a practical mathematician and physicist, using resources to enhance explanations and focusing on investigative, open ended techniques, where applicable. Stephen is experienced in teaching students from Year 7 all the way to Year 13.\u00a0 His expertise includes teaching STEP, MAT, PAT, TMUA, ENGAA, NSAA and Thinking Skills Assessment (TSA), to potential Oxbridge candidates.<\/p>\n

Stephen is DBS checked.\u00a0 He is married to Michelle, a fellow Mathematics teacher and has 3 grown up children.\u00a0 References can be supplied on request.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
