A computer science tutor for Declan, 17, who's falling behind
Online or in-person tutoring in computer science for a bright student in Newport.
🇬🇧 Newport, Wales, United Kingdom1,123 views
My son, Declan, is 17 and in Year 10. Declan loves school but computer science has been a struggle since the school was closed during the strikes. The national exam is in October.
We can't afford a private tutor, and the school's free sessions are full. We're looking for a volunteer who could spend one or two hours a week, in person in Newport or online, for about ten weeks.
Declan 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 Declan's year.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
