      As i went to an all girls secondary there was lot of sessions on women in science and women in technology which did inspire and empower me to become the best version of myself. In regards to good science teachers i dont think they directly impacted my view on engineering but they taught me to push myself and work hard.

      I had a great design technology teacher who let me experiment with engineering during STEM clubs. He moved away soon after I finished GCSE’s but he had the passion that you need to inspire young people into engineering.

      Yes! My chemistry and physics a-level teachers were both great. They were patient and made the lessons interesting, which in turn meant I looked forward to them and wanted to learn!

      Yes, although it was a long time ago! The science and engineering that’s taking place all around us today, has had more impact on my view on engineering. Engineering and science is all around us on our mobiles on the tv and evolving so quickly. What’s happening in the future is having more of an impact on me with the robots that are in charge of hotels, cars with no drivers and gaming that seems to have gone off the scale!

      I had a couple of really good teachers, and they definitely helped to make Science more accessible and had an influence on my decision to pursue engineering.
