My daughter, Vivian, is 11 and in Form 3. Vivian loves school but physics has been a struggle since the school was closed during the move. The SAT exam is in September. 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 Ottawa or online, for about ten weeks. Vivian 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 Vivian's year. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
