I'm Jaxon, 18, 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 psychology.
I have a top-of-class average, I volunteer at an after-school program 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 November. 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.

Praying for you, Jaxon. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from London.
Sending strength. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Thinking of Bakersfield.
best of luck, Jaxon. Shared this with my family. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Tema.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Brisbane.

Thinking of you, Jaxon. Hope you get there
rooting for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Bakersfield.
So sorry you're going through this. Hope this works out for you. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.

Thinking of you and your family, Jaxon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier
This could happen to any of us. After 26 years in public service I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Take care
