I'm Faith, 16, in Year 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 biomedical science. I have a 3.7 average, I volunteer at my mosque 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. Thank you so much.

  • Hope it all works out, Faith. I hope things turn around soon. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Kikuyu

    • Thinking of you, Faith. Shared this with my family. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

      • Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.

        • Stay strong, Faith. Hope this works out for you. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from New Delhi.

          • Thinking of you and your family. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings.

            • Hope things get better soon, Faith. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Chattogram.

              • sending love, Faith. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together. All the best!

                • so sorry you're going through this, Faith. Shared it with a few friends. After 17 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

                    Wishing you the best. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too
