Looking for a patient biology tutor, 1 hours a week, for 18 weeks.

My younger sister, Tanya, is 17 and in Year 10. Tanya loves school but biology has been a struggle since the school was closed during the floods. The GCSE exam is in August.
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 Kingston or online, for about twenty weeks.
Tanya 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 Tanya's year.
Thank you for reading my story.

Hang in there, Nicole. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Kingston.
You're not alone, Nicole. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Hope it all works out, Nicole. Good luck with the exams, you've got this.
