My younger sister, Annelies, is 13 and in Grade 11. Annelies loves school but computer science has been a struggle since the school was closed during the strikes. The SAT exam is in November. We can't afford a private tutor, and the school's free sessions are full. We're looking for a volunteer who could spend one or two hours a week, in person in Haarlem or online, for about ten weeks. Annelies is polite, hardworking and eager. We have a quiet space and a laptop for online sessions. I'll always be at home for in-person sessions. If you're a teacher, student or professional who feels comfortable in computer science, you could change the course of Annelies's year. Glad we found this place.
