The Team
James taught maths in secondary schools in Devon for over 10 years before embarking on his journey into the world of Edtech. He has also taught Functional Skills Maths to a wide range of adults through his work with the Exeter City Community Trust. He brings all of this experience to his role leading the Maths Kitchen FE project. His calm, reassuring manner and passion for maths and teaching shine through in the video lessons he creates.

He subsequently did a PGCE at Exeter University and has five years experience teaching Maths and Statistics at school and university level. He now leads the development work on the Maths Kitchen platform.
