I'm Tumusiime, 18, in Grade 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 computer science.
I have a 3.7 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 July. 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 for reading my story.

As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Wish I lived closer to Wellington so I could bring a meal.
Wishing you peace, Tumusiime. Looking forward to the next update. Blessings
Hope it all works out, Tumusiime. Education changes everything, hope you graduate with honors. Thinking of Kasarani.
Take care, Tumusiime. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
You're not alone, Tumusiime. This could happen to any of us. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Praying for you, Tumusiime. Shared this with my family
Thinking of you and your family, Tumusiime. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
