My younger brother, Russell, is 14 and in Form 3. Russell loves school but English writing has been a struggle since the school was closed during the move. The university entrance 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 Fresno or online, for about sixteen weeks. Russell 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 Russell's year. Glad we found this place.
