I'm a school teacher, and later on, well past my formal education, I became very interested in science.

I'm very interested in science.

I want to be a science teacher. My friends asked me why, but I'm intrigued by it and I'm quite good at science at school.

The driving force behind 'In Our Time' is that I want an education. I want to know more about science, say, and if I want to know, then other people probably do, too.

Science class is traditionally taught as science history class - you learn all these facts that someone else discovered, which you need to know, but that's not really an inspiring way to learn science.

I was interested in science before I even knew what science was.

My interest in science started in junior high school where an outstanding science teacher, Mrs. Baumgardner, introduced me to the joys of science.

You should only go into science if you really have a yearning to make scientific discoveries.

One of the reasons I'm so passionate about science is that it wasn't correctly taught to me. I got excited at university.

People are interested in science, but they don't always know they're interested in science, and so I try to find a way to get them interested.
