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
GREATEST ACHIEVEMENT (SO FAR)
It's a long story but last summer, I went to a rural town in Estonia to mentor young estonians in a weeklong hackathon! I learned so much about a place I had never had any connection to and bonded with kids who sometimes didn't speak any English. My team won the competition and went on the radio and shouted me out! So I guess I'm a E-List celebrity in Estonia now :)
