I'm Matthew, 17, in my final year of high school. 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 economics.
I have a 3.9 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

- 1 hour a week

Thanks for sharing this, Matthew. Hope you get there. Thinking of Leeds.
wishing you the best, Matthew. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor in Nashville donated after I showed her your page.
Wishing you the best, Matthew. Hope you get there. Take care
Sending love, Matthew. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Nuremberg but we're thinking of you
Take care, Matthew. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Orlando this morning. Take care.
