I'm Jericho, 16, 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 civil engineering.
I have a 3.9 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 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.
Thank you so much.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Quezon City
Hope it all works out, Jericho. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Rooting for you. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Quezon City.
You're not alone, Jericho. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope August is when things finally get easier.
Good luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 13 people at work. Thinking of Quezon City.
Praying for you. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Nakhon Ratchasima.
Hope it all works out. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Quezon City.
Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Quezon City.
