Description

Watford UTC is proud to present: How to be your Child's First Science Teacher, with Alom Shaha

Doing hands-on activities with children is the best way to get them exploring the world around them and thinking like future scientists and engineers. However, many parents lack confidence in doing science with their children, compared with reading, writing or drawing.

Our excellent physics teacher and author of 'Mr Shaha's Recipes for Wonder', Alom Shaha, shows how parents can help their children engage with science even if they have little or no science knowledge themselves.

Alom is a science teacher and dad who has spent most of his professional life trying to share his passion for science and education with the public. Alom was born in Bangladesh but grew up in London. He has produced, directed, and appeared in a number of television programmes for broadcasters such as the BBC, and has held fellowships from the National Endowment for Science, Technology, and the Arts (NESTA) and the Nuffield Foundation. Alom has represented his community as an elected politician, and has volunteered at a range of charitable organisations. He teaches at The Watford UTC and writes for a number of print and online publications.
