My nephew, Caleb, is 13 and in the final year of school. Caleb loves school but French has been a struggle since the school was closed during the floods. The university entrance exam is in September. 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 Manchester or online, for about twelve weeks. Caleb 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 French, you could change the course of Caleb's year. I hope life is good to you.

  • Keep going. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Sydney this morning!

    • Sending strength, Walter. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.

      • You're not alone, Walter. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Nuremberg so I could bring a meal. All the best.

        • Keep going, Walter. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Eldoret.

          • Sending good thoughts, Walter. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings.

            • Hope it all works out. Study hard! Thinking of Manchester.

              • Keep going, Walter. Your post was clear and honest. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

                • It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 19 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

                  • I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless!

                    • You're not alone, Walter. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
