I'm Chao, 16, 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 computer science.
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 December. 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
- effort
- 1 hour a week
- format
- Online or by phone
- skills
- university experience, essay feedback

Hope it all works out. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Tallahassee but we're thinking of you. Love from Tallahassee
Stay strong. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.
Hope it all works out, Chao. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Study hard! Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Thinking of you, Chao. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend!
