About

Luis lives with his mother, an older sister and two younger siblings. They live in a house with two rooms, a kitchen and bathroom. Their only income is his mother's irregular, low income. Luis is very keen on science and in his spare time likes to learn more about about it. At the moment, he is undecided whether a career as a doctor or as a mechanic attracts him most.

The last year was very difficult because we were studying online. For me the best way to learn is in class because you can see your teachers and your friends and work with them. I also feel impatient - this is my last year at school and I am keen to go on to further training and then be able to help my family.
This term has been more difficult because we had to do more homework as well as the lessons online. I had some problems with maths as I couldn't understand the teacher, but I think I've done alright in all the other subjects. One thing I'm pleased about is that I've learnt to teach myself about topics that I did not understand. I thought I wouldn't pass these subjects but in the end I managed to do this by teaching myself. Thank you.
