I'm Nina, 19, 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 journalism.
I have a distinction average, I volunteer at an after-school program 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Hang in there, Nina. Shared this with my family
As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Please keep us posted. Love from San Diego
Hope it all works out. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Kharkiv.
Good luck. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Put this on a community board in Chattogram this morning. Thinking of Kharkiv.
hope this works out for you. After 30 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Take care. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.

keep going, Nina. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I hope December is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Los Angeles.
Stay strong. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 37 people at work.
