A mathematics tutor for Mercedes, 12, who's falling behind
Mercedes is working hard on mathematics but can't afford a tutor; 1 hours a week until the national would help enormously.

My niece, Mercedes, is 12 and in Year 10. Mercedes loves school but mathematics has been a struggle since the school was closed during the strikes. The national exam is in April.
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 Seattle or online, for about twenty weeks.
Mercedes 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 mathematics, you could change the course of Mercedes's year.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

take care. Looking forward to the next update. It's not much but it's yours.
Wishing you the best, Renata. I hope things turn around soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Kathmandu.
keep going, Renata. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Put this on a community board in Zaria this morning. Thinking of Seattle
