I'm Ifeoma, 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 psychology.
I have a 3.7 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 March. 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
- effort
- 1 hour a week
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- university experience, essay feedback

Study hard! I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Warri.
Good luck, Ifeoma. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Take care, Ifeoma. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Iloilo City.
Thinking of you and your family, Ifeoma. Hope you get there
best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 22 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Mississauga.
Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Saint-Étienne so I could bring a meal. Love from London
