I'm Francis, 17, in my final year of high school. 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 public health.
I have a 3.9 average, I volunteer at a food pantry 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 October. 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.
Glad we found this place.

sending love. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Cardiff this morning
thinking of you. Hope you get there. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
Take care, Francis. Hope this works out for you.
Hope it all works out. Shared this with my family. Please keep us posted
Looking forward to the next update. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Nairobi.
As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. It's not much but it's yours. All the best
