English writing help for Victor, preparing for the school-leaving exam
Victor is working hard on English writing but can't afford a tutor; 1 hours a week until the school-leaving would help enormously.

My younger brother, Victor, is 13 and in Form 3. Victor loves school but English writing has been a struggle since the school was closed during the strikes. The school-leaving exam is in February.
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 Nairobi or online, for about ten weeks.
Victor 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 Victor's year.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Stay strong. Your post was clear and honest. Don't give up. All the best.
Keep going. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
thinking of you and your family, Kevin. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. It's not much but it's yours. All the best
so sorry you're going through this, Kevin. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't give up!
Wishing you peace, Kevin. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 17 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
