Manila
My son, Pedro, is 13 and in Grade 11. Pedro loves school but chemistry has been a struggle since the school was closed during the strikes. The GCSE exam is in October. 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 Manila or online, for about sixteen weeks. Pedro 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 Pedro's year. Thank you for reading my story.
