Host: Christian has been a Geography teacher for 9 years, teaching year groups from KS3 to KS5. He specialised in outdoor fieldwork prior to teaching. Alongside teaching, for the past 3 years, Christian has been an Examiner which allows him to understand exactly what is expected of students to receive the grades they wish to achieve.Tropical storms are also known as their more popular names of typhoons, hurricanes and cyclones. In this class on Natural Hazards, students will examine the formation of tropical storms. They will identify where and why they occur, this will involve examining location and linking towards processes within weather patterns and forces of a global scale. This class is aimed at students in Years 10 and 11 who want to develop a better understanding of geography hazards.
