French help for Ximena, preparing for the board exam

Ximena is working hard on French but can't afford a tutor; 2 hours a week until the board would help enormously.

My niece, Ximena, is 15 and in the final year of school. Ximena loves school but French has been a struggle since the school was closed during the move. The board 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 Memphis or online, for about sixteen weeks. Ximena 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 French, you could change the course of Ximena's year. I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
