French help for Zaid, preparing for the university entrance exam
Zaid is working hard on French but can't afford a tutor; 1 hours a week until the university entrance would help enormously.

My younger brother, Zaid, is 16 and in Grade 11. Zaid loves school but French has been a struggle since the school was closed during the strikes. The university entrance exam is in October.
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 Heliopolis or online, for about sixteen weeks.
Zaid 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 Zaid's year.
Glad we found this place.

Sending love. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out
You're not alone, Leila. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best!
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Rawalpindi
Thinking of you, Leila. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Heliopolis.
Thanks for sharing this, Leila. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Stay strong. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Madrid so I could bring a meal.
