I'm Ximena, 19, in my final year of high school. My parents work long hours and didn't go to university, so there's no one at home who can help me understand applications, deadlines or financial aid. I'd like to study computer science.
I have a distinction average, I volunteer at the local library and I have a draft of my personal statement. What I need is someone to read my essays, tell me honestly what's weak, and explain how scholarships work.
I'm looking for an hour a week until November. We can do it by video from anywhere. My mother will be at home during every call, and the school counselor knows about this request.
Thanks for reading. It took me a long time to ask.

Praying for you, Ximena. I hope things turn around soon. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Vancouver.
As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Wish I lived closer to Lagos so I could bring a meal. Take care
