An English writing tutor for Vanessa, 14, who's falling behind
Vanessa is working hard on English writing but can't afford a tutor; 1 hours a week until the board would help enormously.

My younger sister, Vanessa, is 14 and in Year 10. Vanessa loves school but English writing has been a struggle since the school was closed during the floods. The board exam is in November.
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 São Paulo or online, for about sixteen weeks.
Vanessa 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 Vanessa's year.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
