I'm Ines, 17, in Form 6. 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 biomedical science.
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 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Keep going, Ines. Shared this with my family.
wishing you the best, Ines. Hope you get there. Please keep us posted.
Sending good thoughts, Ines. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Cairo.
you're not alone. Shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Juiz de Fora but we're thinking of you. All the best.
Wishing you peace, Ines. Good luck with the exams, you've got this!
hope it all works out. Study hard! My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Bucaramanga.
Stay strong, Ines. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 4 people at work.
Hang in there, Ines. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. All the best.
