I'm Nicolas, 18, in Form 6. 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 civil engineering.
I have a 3.9 average, I volunteer at the local library 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 August. 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Warsaw but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Paris.
Keep going, Nicolas. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together. God bless.
