I'm Ruan, 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 computer science.
I have a 3.7 average, I volunteer at my church youth group 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Keep going, Ruan. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 17 years in construction I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Thinking of Durban.
Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Love from Nagpur.
Thanks for sharing this, Ruan. Shared this with my family. After 30 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
