I'm Tareq, 16, 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 architecture.
I have a distinction 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 May. 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.

Wishing you the best. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Hialeah.
Hope it all works out, Tareq. I hope things turn around soon.
Hope it all works out, Tareq. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Greetings from Taguig.
Hope you get there. After 20 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Khulna.
Thinking of you and your family. Study hard! God bless.
Thanks for sharing this, Tareq. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Greetings from Recife.
Hope things get better soon, Tareq. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Good luck, Tareq. Shared this with my family. Love from Bhaktapur
I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
