I'm Suresh, 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 architecture. I have a 3.9 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 December. 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.

      Hang in there, Suresh. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

      • Sending strength. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn.
