Online Biology Tutor Nea

After studying biology, chemistry and maths at A Level, choosing something science-related for my undergraduate degree seemed the logical choice. An undergraduate degree in biomedical sciences led me to discover my passion for biological sciences and to apply for further study in the field, doing more specialist study into cancer biology, immunology and neuroscience in my MSc. Having finished my Masters with a Distinction, I spent a year working full-time in Dementia research but decided I wasn’t done with academia. I am now studying for a PhD looking into the roles of environmental microbes, but I still love sharing my passion for science through tutoring in the evenings and at weekends.

Whilst I had tutored occasionally before, I started tutoring seriously during 2020 as part of the National Tutoring Programme for Schools as I had more time on my hands. I gradually expanded my student base to include more private students which I have thoroughly enjoyed, helping many of my students to achieve top grades! I love getting the opportunity to help students reach and surpass all of their goals and expectations.

Outside of academia, I love baking and being outdoors - you will often find me trail running in the mountains or open water swimming in rivers and lakes, frequently with a hot coffee and homemade cake packed for after!
