I think it was my best teacher who (1) affected my career choice. I went to a secondary school and Mr Leigh was my Physics teacher. My core subjects were Maths, English and Art. But Mr Leigh was a particularly good teacher and he was partly responsible for me ending up doing Physics.
Physics is a difficult subject, but he made it so lively. He taught it well and he (2) wasntaskt confined by the syllabus. I remember being impressed even then that Mr Leigh wanted to teach us things that werentaskt on the (3) syllabus. He would say, "I think you should know about this," and so he taught us optics and cameras and lenses, and things like that — Itaskve loved photography since.
He made an (4) obscure subject 100 per cent logical and clear. He broke it down into the elements so it made you think, "Of course, thattasks it." He wasntaskt dramatic, and he had a gentle sense of humour, which I appreciated even then.
I cantaskt remember his face, but I can see his (5) physique — he was stocky, and grey-haired, quite solidly built. And I can see the way he stood, usually with a hand in his pocket, squarely, and he wore quite conservative clothes, tweedy jackets and a jumper. He was one of the few male teachers and he really did have the respect of the pupils. He was probably in his fifties.
I was (6) in a complete tizz as to what to do when I left. All three core subjects were equally attractive. When I give talks to young people in schools, I say to them, "If you dontaskt know what you want to do, be sure that you choose subjects you love because you will never (7) excel at ones you dontaskt." And thattasks the irony, in that I loved Maths, English and Art, but I ended up doing sciences, partly because of Mr Leigh.
