I'm Indira, 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 architecture.
I have a 3.9 average, I volunteer at my mosque 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 February. 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
- effort
- 1 hour a week
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- university experience, essay feedback

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 13 people at work. God bless.
Stay strong, Indira. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. All the best.
Sending good thoughts, Indira. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Gangnam.
Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Davao City but we're thinking of you.
So sorry you're going through this, Indira. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
