My name is Tony Thyer and I teach physics. I
have worked at a Further Education College in South-East London since 1985,
teaching Computing until 2005. and Physics since then. Our students are 16+
years. Many have English as a second language, some are attempting to
improve their qualifications, others are taking the final step before
University. They are all a delight to teach, I get asked questions about why
particles decay in a particular way, and what drives the Wind Turbines - Oil
or Coal. The last question was easy.
I like developing educational materials.- for example
see
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/e.thyer/quark/HadronBuilder.html I have a
desire to get a deeper understanding of Particle Physics, ready for when the
LHC finds something new. I am also keen to find an excuse to use the Grid.
In my spare time I attempt Yoga, and visit my
Grandchildren in Zurich at every opportunity.
