I'm Carlos, 19, in my final year of high school. My parents work long hours and didn't go to university, so there's no one at home who can help me understand applications, deadlines or financial aid. I'd like to study public health.
I have a top-of-class average, I volunteer at my church youth group and I have a draft of my personal statement. What I need is someone to read my essays, tell me honestly what's weak, and explain how scholarships work.
I'm looking for an hour a week until February. We can do it by video from anywhere. My mother will be at home during every call, and the school counselor knows about this request.
Thanks for reading. It took me a long time to ask.
Glad we found this place.

Sending good thoughts, Carlos. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. We're a small family in Bogotá but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
Hope things get better soon, Carlos. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Bakersfield so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Hope things get better soon, Carlos. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Guarulhos.
Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. It's not much but it's yours. Take care
So sorry you're going through this. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
Thanks for sharing this. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Albany

you're not alone. Study hard! Greetings from Bacoor.
Thanks for sharing this, Carlos. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Guarulhos.
You're not alone, Carlos. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up. Take care
Praying for you, Carlos. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Praying for you. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Leeds but we're thinking of you. Blessings
