A mentor acts as an advisor, sharing knowledge based on their lived experience. There’s more sharing between, as mentors strive to help their mentees grow into peers.How mentors learn alongside their studentsHow there is a mutual respect of each otherHow this dynamic leads to shared responsibility and looking out for each otherHow this dynamic is what creates the village that raises a childMeeting the child where they are atQuotes:“These are the moments that shape a student.
