I'm Victoria, 19, 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 journalism.
I have a 3.9 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 October. 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.

Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Bengaluru
Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Cairo donated after I showed her your page.
wishing you the best, Victoria. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn.
Sending good thoughts, Victoria. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Put this on a community board in New York this morning. Greetings from New York.
