Matthew Bell grew up in a small Scottish town before a passion for Science and Mathematics had him heading to University of Glasgow to obtain a Master’s degree in Chemistry. During his degree he found himself happiest when helping others and after navigating through a postgraduate diploma in education at the University of Aberdeen he returned to his home council to help spread the passion he had grown and fostered over the years as a science teacher.

With around a decade of IB teaching experience, he now holds the roles of Diploma programme coordinator and Extended essay coordinator. In terms of teaching, Matthew has taught DP Biology, MYP Science and MYP Mathematics at various points across the years.
Quick to adapt to new learning and teaching styles, Matthew is a firm believer in experiential learning and the value of new digital technologies. Constantly adapting and refining materials, he strives to teach in ever more engaging way.
