Biology PhD with research experience teaches Biology in English or Russian to international students
From 83 C$ /h
Hello! My name is Evgenia, and I am a biologist, researcher and experienced teacher with a strong academic background.
I have been passionate about Biology since the age of 14 and graduated from a specialised Biology class before studying Biology at university. I hold Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Biology and am currently completing my PhD in Biology. I am also the author of seven scientific publications and have extensive research experience in genetics, evolution, zoology and animal biology.
Alongside my research, I have many years of teaching experience. I have taught Biology and Zoology in specialised school programmes, worked as a lecturer at an educational centre preparing students for Biology exams and the International Biology Olympiad, and participated in university and public science education programmes. I have also provided individual tutoring, working with students of different ages and levels and adapting lessons to their individual needs.
For me, Biology is much more than a school subject. I love science as a way of thinking: asking questions, understanding how processes work, finding connections and using knowledge to solve problems. This is also the approach I bring to my teaching.
I aim to make complex scientific concepts clear and understandable without oversimplifying the science. Rather than relying on memorisation, I help students understand the principles behind biological processes and learn how to reason through unfamiliar problems.
I also believe that a good connection between the teacher and student is essential. I always take the student's interests, goals and existing knowledge into account, and I often begin with topics that genuinely interest them. This helps create a comfortable learning environment and makes studying more engaging and enjoyable.
My lessons are suitable for school students, including those preparing for exams and Biology Olympiads, as well as university students who need support with Biology and related subjects. I can teach in both English and Russian.

About Me
Hello! My name is Evgenia, and I am a biologist, researcher and teacher. I have been passionate about Biology since I was 14, and for me science is much more than a school subject: it is a way of thinking, asking questions and understanding how the world works.
I enjoy teaching because I like seeing students move from “I have to memorise this” to “I understand how this works”. My approach is based on understanding biological principles rather than memorising isolated facts. I try to explain complex concepts clearly and step by step, while keeping the scientific depth of the subject.
I am a patient and attentive teacher, and I believe that a good relationship with a student is an important part of successful learning. I start by finding out what the student already knows, what they find difficult and, importantly, what they are interested in. I then adapt the lessons to their level, goals and interests.
I enjoy working with curious students who want to understand not only what happens in Biology, but also why and how it happens. I work with school and university students, including students preparing for exams and Biology Olympiads.
I teach Biology in both English and Russian.
