I'm Francis, 18, in Grade 12. 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 architecture.
I have a distinction 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 October. 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.

You're not alone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't give up. Take care.
sending strength, Francis. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care
Thinking of you, Francis. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Thinking of Caloocan.
Sending love, Francis. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors.
You're not alone, Francis. I hope things turn around soon. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Take care
