Mentoring Tips
Mentors function as kids’ bridge to reality. But often hindered by lack of training and time, how do mentors make a lasting impression? Seasoned mentors and educators share their tips:
- Be enthusiastic and passionate. Motivated mentors make for motivated kids.
- Be organized, detailed, and flexible. Keep students engaged by adapting to their individual needs.
- Give students your full time and attention. Get to know them to make a real connection.
- Develop a manageable but usable project. Make it easy to create but not easy to waste.
- Encourage students to share with others. This builds a sense of community.
- Finally, just be yourself.
