My son, Gabriel, is 13 and in Year 10. Gabriel loves school but computer science has been a struggle since the school was closed during the move. The SAT exam is in November. 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 San Francisco or online, for about ten weeks. Gabriel 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 Gabriel's year. I hope life is good to you.

    sending love. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Mthatha.

    • Best of luck, Liam. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours

      • thanks for sharing this. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Khon Kaen so I could bring a meal. All the best.

        • Thanks for sharing this, Liam. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

          • Sending good thoughts. Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in Bogra this morning

            • It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.

              • Thinking of you and your family, Liam. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I hope November is when things finally get easier.

                • wishing you peace, Liam. Hope this works out for you. All the best.

                  • Hope things get better soon, Liam. Study hard! After 20 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

                    • So sorry you're going through this, Liam. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

                      • hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Onitsha.

                        • Wishing you peace, Liam. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.

                          • Hope this works out for you. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Birmingham

                            • keep going, Liam. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. My neighbor in Poznań donated after I showed her your page. All the best.

                              • Thinking of you and your family. Study hard! This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
