"Teach Now! is a new series of books written for trainee teachers. The author of this book is an experienced physics teacher. The subtitle 'The joy of teaching science' is very apt, as Tom's passion for teaching his subject shines out from the pages. ...I'd recommend this book to those commencing their training as a science teacher. I'm sure that a trainee who used it during their training year would continue to refer to it in their first post as newly qualified teacher." - Mary Whitehouse, Education in Chemistry
"Teach Now! Science is one of a series of books aimed at student teachers, taking them from first steps through to getting their first job. This is a very good book, packed with practical advice and the wisdom of experience and written by a skilled practitioner" – Ann Reddecliffe, SSR
