How did people find paper 1?

New video up on carboxylic acids. Trying to keep them shorter... Any feedback would be good!

Bit late, but I hope everyone got the grades they needed. If not, don't stress because it's not the end of the world! Sort out how to fix it and put your disappointment aside for now. Good luck to everyone for the future!

An old student of mine has started a kickstarter for all you merch loving chemists out there. Give it a look! kickstarter.com/projects/12588…

Obviously my videos are geared more towards A-Level, but I hope everyone got the results they wanted today! It isn't the end of the world if things aren't perfect - pick yourself up and sort out your next steps.

Pro exam tip: have a good breakfast. Go eat some eggs. Caffeine is not breakfast.

How was paper 1?

Another year done. I hope all students sitting exams have had a smooth ride. Don't spend time looking at unofficial mark schemes are stressing about your answers. You already have a grade, you just don't know it. Have a beautiful break and good luck for whatever comes next!

Getting my UCAS on at Leeds Beckett

Video on amino acids being uploaded as I type! Not done a video for a while, let me know what you think! #holidaywork #chem4lyf

I would like to grow my YouTube channel and associated accounts. Does anyone know how to do this?!

Good luck to all receiving results today! Celebrate, but remember that life is more tham a few letters.

Alongside being a Chemistry teacher I'm also Head of Y13 and so I doubly appreciate the impact that exam cancellations have had on students and I am heartbroken. Please try and stay positive over the coming days and weeks.

Not posted for a while, but now that freesciencelessons has jumped on the A Level Chem train, I'm going to have to up my game. Having made some videos for my classes in lockdown, I enjoyed a more structured PPT approach, with scribbling over the top. But shorter. Thoughts?

Good luck to everyone receiving results today! If things haven't quite turned out as you want, keep your head and make a plan. And make sure you celebrate your hard work!

I've started using OneNote to make notes for my classes and thought others might find them useful: 1drv.ms/o/s!AsIHVJzt-9…

One down, two to go! I hope this morning's paper 1 was all good

Bit late, but hope paper 2 went well for everyone! Only 1 to go... Remember to get the practicals clear in your head

Massive amounts of good luck for this last paper! If this is your last exam, enjoy some well-earned time off!

Good luck to everyone getting results today. Congratulations if everyone has gone to plan, but if it hasn't, it isn't the end of the world. Pick yourself up and get a plan together. Then celebrate your hard work!
