A biology tutor for Derek, 13, who's falling behind
Derek is working hard on biology but can't afford a tutor; 2 hours a week until the school-leaving would help enormously.

My nephew, Derek, is 13 and in the final year of school. Derek loves school but biology has been a struggle since the school was closed during the floods. The school-leaving exam is in December.
We can't afford a private tutor, and the school's free sessions are full. We're looking for a volunteer who could spend one or two hours a week, in person in Leeds or online, for about twenty weeks.
Derek is polite, hardworking and eager. We have a quiet space and a laptop for online sessions. I'll always be at home for in-person sessions.
If you're a teacher, student or professional who feels comfortable in biology, you could change the course of Derek's year.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
