Lansing
I'm Jayson, 18, in my final year of high school. 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 journalism. I have a 3.7 average, I volunteer at a food pantry 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 June. 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

        Keep going, Jayson. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Wish I lived closer to Sapporo so I could bring a meal. Take care.

        • Leonid Antonov

          Sending love. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Hồ Chí Minh City so I could bring a meal.

            Rooting for you, Jayson. Study hard! The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Gdynia.
