A physics tutor for Lanre, 11, who's falling behind
Lanre is working hard on physics but can't afford a tutor; 2 hours a week until the board would help enormously.

My nephew, Lanre, is 11 and in Grade 11. Lanre loves school but physics has been a struggle since the school was closed during the floods. The board exam is in August.
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 Lagos or online, for about twenty weeks.
Lanre 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 physics, you could change the course of Lanre's year.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Keep going, Garba. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Jodhpur.
Thanks for sharing this, Garba. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
hope things get better soon. Study hard! Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless
you're not alone, Garba. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Love from Iztapalapa
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Kediri
Sending love, Garba. I hope things turn around soon. All the best.
Thinking of you and your family, Garba. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together
Take care. This could happen to any of us. After 30 years in social work I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Take care.
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Guarulhos donated after I showed her your page. All the best.
Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Augsburg.
I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Istanbul.
