My son, Lucas, is 16 and in Form 3. Lucas loves school but biology has been a struggle since the school was closed during the floods. The GCSE exam is in May.
We can't afford a private tutor, and the school's free sessions are full. We're looking for a volunteer who could spend an hour or two a week, in person in Manchester or online, for about twenty weeks.
Lucas 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 Lucas's year.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Thanks for sharing this. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless
thinking of you and your family. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
So sorry you're going through this, Tyler. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Oakland
you're not alone, Tyler. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together. Love from Polokwane
