Become a LEGO Robotics Mentor
Great Mentors
Most of us have had a teacher, supervisor, or coach who has mentored us and made a positive difference in our lives. Those people wore many hats, acting as delegators, role models, cheerleaders, policy enforcers, advocates, and friends. Mentors assume these different roles during the course of a relationship, and share some basic qualities:
A sincere desire to be involved with a young person
Respect for young people
Active listening skills
Empathy
Ability to see solutions and opportunities
Flexibility
Benefits
Mentoring relationships are a shared opportunity for learning and growth. Many mentors say that the rewards they gain are as substantial as those for their mentees, and that mentoring has enabled them to:
Have fun
Achieve personal growth and learn more about themselves
Improve their self-esteem and feel they are making a difference
Gain a better understanding of other cultures and develop a greater appreciation for diversity
Feel more productive and have a better attitude at work
Enhance their relationships with their own children
