I'm Rowan, 17, in Year 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 public health. I have a distinction average, I volunteer at my mosque 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 June. 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    You're not alone, Rowan. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Thinking of Perth.

      Sending strength, Rowan. Study hard! I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Perth.

      • Valérie Charlotte Deschamps

        Wishing you the best, Rowan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

          Sending good thoughts, Rowan. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes

          • Diya P. Saxena

            hang in there, Rowan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.
