I'm Audrey, 16, in Year 12. My parents work long hours and didn't go to university, so there's no one at home who can help me understand applications, deadlines or financial aid. I'd like to study journalism.
I have a distinction average, I volunteer at my church youth group and I have a draft of my personal statement. What I need is someone to read my essays, tell me honestly what's weak, and explain how scholarships work.
I'm looking for an hour a week until December. We can do it by video from anywhere. My mother will be at home during every call, and the school counselor knows about this request.
Thanks for reading. It took me a long time to ask.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
- effort
- 1 hour a week

Sending love, Audrey. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. I'll check back for the next update. God bless.
Thinking of you, Audrey. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out.
take care, Audrey. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Warsaw.
Rooting for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
