Columbus

My nephew, Daniel, is 17 and in Form 3. Daniel loves school but English writing has been a struggle since the school was closed during the strikes. The SAT exam is in April. 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 Columbus or online, for about twelve weeks. Daniel 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 English writing, you could change the course of Daniel's year. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

effort: 1–2 hours a week
format: In person in Columbus
skills: teaching, patience, subject knowledge
