PRO TIP:
When evaluating whether a mentor would be a good match for your student keep in mind that the greatest leading indicator of success is how well a mentor and their mentee get along.
Questions to ask yourself:
- Would the student find this person inspiring?
- Do they share any interests, hobbies, or lived experiences?
EDUCATION
Watch Adelaide D. break down a subject they’re passionate about.
WHY THIS MATTERS:
Our mentorship sessions happen virtually over Zoom. It’s important to get a sense of how someone’s personality can come through on a video call. The best way to ensure your student is excited about learning is to have someone on the other side that they look forward to talking to.

TESTIMONIALS

Stephanie Shum
Adelaide and my son are like two peas in an obscure animals pod! His sessions with Adelaide are the highlight of his week and he's so proud of his blog. The other day, he couldn't wait to show Adelaide the new book he got about "weird animals". Adelaide has helped my son develop his writing skills and made it fun along the way. We love Adelaide!

Adelaide has been a true gift for our daughter - she managed to make a strong connection quickly, and tailored a program that is diverse and personalized in a truly engaging way. We're so happy our daughter gets to spend time with her!
