I'm Terry, 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 psychology.
I have a top-of-class 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 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.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless
Praying for you, Terry. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors
Sending strength, Terry. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Montego Bay.
Good luck. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Badagry so I could bring a meal
Thinking of you and your family. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. After 19 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
