  2. Website record: 766 page views on Wednesday 6th May 2009 – right before Biology paper 3. Most people were looking for materials on Option H: Further Human Physiology. Rock on.

  3. Hi Stephen,
    Could you please email me when you get a moment–I’m an IB Biology-HL teacher in the US and would like to ask you about some of the amazing resources you have on your site!
    Thanks,
    Michelle

  4. Im a teacher in the us and your site is excellent. However im have problems h your presentations. They work at home but not at school? Any ideas?

    • Hi Joe,

      Thanks for the comment!

      Sounds like the school has blocked SlideShare or this site. Your best bet is to go to My SlideShare page when you’re at home and download the presentations, then bring them to school. Some come through as better quality than others.

      Good luck!

      Steve

  5. Dear Steve,

    You have an excellent web-site. I wish I had found it earlier. Thank you so much for sharing with all your excellent presentations.

  6. Do you by any chance have resources/ or teach Option D Evolution?
