A computer science tutor for Chamari, 14, who's falling behind

Chamari is working hard on computer science but can't afford a tutor; 1 hours a week until the university entrance would help enormously.

My niece, Chamari, is 14 and in Grade 11. Chamari loves school but computer science has been a struggle since the school was closed during the strikes. The university entrance exam is in December. We can't afford a private tutor, and the school's free sessions are full. We're looking for a volunteer who could spend an hour or two a week, in person in Kandy or online, for about twenty weeks. Chamari is polite, hardworking and eager. We have a quiet space and a laptop for online sessions. I'll always be at home for in-person sessions. If you're a teacher, student or professional who feels comfortable in computer science, you could change the course of Chamari's year. Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

  • So sorry you're going through this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Johannesburg

    • Keep going, Kumara. I hope things turn around soon. Don't give up. Blessings.

      • Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Kandy

        • best of luck, Kumara. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors.

          • good luck with the exams, you've got this. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.

            • Praying for you. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Katowice.

                • Hope things get better soon, Kumara. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I hope December is when things finally get easier. Blessings.
