An English writing tutor for Randall, 15, who's falling behind
Randall is working hard on English writing but can't afford a tutor; 2 hours a week until the SAT would help enormously.

My nephew, Randall, is 15 and in the final year of school. Randall loves school but English writing has been a struggle since the school was closed during the floods. The SAT exam is in June.
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 Fort Worth or online, for about twenty weeks.
Randall 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 Randall's year.
Thank you for reading my story.
