San Francisco
My son, José, is 11 and in Grade 11. José loves school but mathematics has been a struggle since the school was closed during the floods. The SAT exam is in January. 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 San Francisco or online, for about twenty weeks. José 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 mathematics, you could change the course of José's year. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
