I launched psychology as a brand new subject at one of the best A-level schools in Shanghai and thrived on the pressure of building up a brand new department from scratch; I enjoyed watching it go from strength to strength, resulting in 80% of psychology students achieving A/A* at A level (well above the global average of 16%). For two years in a row, one of my students achieved the highest overall A-level psychology score in the whole of China for the CIE exam board.
