Now, when I'm preparing a programme, I think about how Mr. Jenkins would have done it. Sometimes, I wish I could phone him and ask for his opinion! My Pupil Brain Jenkins, science teacher at Overton Comprehensive. When Graham came into my class he was a bit "difficult". But when he got interested, it all changed. He was extremely bright, and he should have done much better in all of his other subjects. I've read a couple of his books and seen him on TV. I say to my wife," Oh, look, I used to teach him!" I certainly wish I was as successful with all my pupils as with Graham. It's difficult teaching nowadays. There are discipline problems and not enough money. The government should give more money for science education. I also wish the classes were smaller; it's difficult doing lessons in laboratories with big groups. My wife often wishes I had chosen a less stressful career. But I love teaching. It's a great feeling when you know you've taught something well. It also makes me proud when I see my pupils doing well, like Graham. I feel that I've achieved something.
