My daughter, Lourdes, is 14 and in Form 3. Lourdes loves school but chemistry has been a struggle since the school was closed during the pandemic. The SAT 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 San Jose or online, for about twenty weeks. Lourdes 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 chemistry, you could change the course of Lourdes's year. I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

    Hang in there. Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Miami but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Miami.

      Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Wish I lived closer to Bologna so I could bring a meal. Thinking of San Jose.
