My son, Santiago, is 12 and in Year 10. Santiago loves school but chemistry has been a struggle since the school was closed during the strikes. The GCSE exam is in September. 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 London or online, for about ten weeks. Santiago 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 Santiago's year. I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

        • Thanks for sharing this, Melanie. Shared it with a few friends. Sent it to 13 people at work. Thinking of London.

          • So sorry you're going through this, Melanie. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. My neighbor in Kaduna donated after I showed her your page.
