I'm Nathaniel, 17, 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 psychology.
I have a 3.9 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 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.

Thinking of you and your family. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. After 13 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything
