Volunteer tutor needed: computer science for a motivated student in Cardiff

Kimberly is working hard on computer science but can't afford a tutor; 2 hours a week until the GCSE would help enormously.

My younger sister, Kimberly, is 11 and in Year 10. Kimberly loves school but computer science has been a struggle since the school was closed during the pandemic. The GCSE exam is in December. We can't afford a private tutor, and the school's free sessions are full. We're looking for a volunteer who could spend an hour or two a week, in person in Cardiff or online, for about ten weeks. Kimberly 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 Kimberly's year. Thanks for being kind about this.

    • Hope it all works out, Owen. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings

      • I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Mandaue.

        • Study hard! Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Cardiff.

            Hope things get better soon, Owen. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.

              stay strong. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Kano

              • Thinking of you, Owen. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care.

                • Stay strong, Owen. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.

                  • Wishing you peace, Owen. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
