More about Physics for Girls

Hi, I’m Laura.

I’m a qualified Physics teacher with a Physics degree from the University of Southampton. I’ve spent around 20 years in education, teaching Physics and Maths and helping students build their confidence in Physics.

I created Physics for Girls because I want more girls to feel that Physics is a subject they can understand, enjoy and succeed in.

Physics for Girls is a free online GCSE Physics textbook, with clear explanations, interactive simulations, worked examples and questions to help you learn at your own pace.
