Looking for a patient English writing tutor, 2 hours a week, for 24 weeks.

My niece, María, is 16 and in Form 3. María loves school but English writing has been a struggle since the school was closed during the move. The GCSE 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 an hour or two a week, in person in Bogotá or online, for about twenty weeks.
Marían 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 English writing, you could change the course of María's year.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Best of luck. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Wish I lived closer to Los Angeles so I could bring a meal. Love from Entebbe.
hope this works out for you. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Good luck, Julián. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
