I'm Heitor, 17, in Grade 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 civil engineering.
I have a top-of-class average, I volunteer at the local library 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.

Hope things get better soon. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Brooklyn
You're not alone, Heitor. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless
You're not alone, Heitor. This could happen to any of us.
Keep going, Heitor. Your post was clear and honest. It's not much but it's yours. Take care.
Best of luck, Heitor. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
So sorry you're going through this, Heitor. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings!
Sending love, Heitor. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Mérida
Stay strong, Heitor. This could happen to any of us.
Hang in there, Heitor. This could happen to any of us. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too
