I've been thinking lately, and there's a strong chance I'll look into being a mentor in the future (once I sort out this journey we call life).
Anyone here of like mind? Or possibly already participating in something similar?
Like Big Brothers Big Sisters of America type mentoring
i frequently think about becoming a teacher for middle/high school kids, maybe college if i finish this phd s*** (not looking hot rn)
i feel like even tho i have no presence or personality it would be kinda fun, like u learn about these kids and become their friends in a way
im sure it would be awkward at first but over time you develop strategies to avoid awkward moments
ive thought about it
I don't think I'll ever figure this life thing out, but I definitely provide insights to those I see a younger me in
I peer mentored freshmen in the intro University course for about three years in college
also mentored kids in the 8th and 10th grades at my city's high school
it was cool, but also discouraging
Not mentoring per se, but I plan on working in a teaching hospital where I can teach residents and med students
I used to have a protege, and I helped steer his career in the right direction.

Discouraging how? Was it a frustrating experience? :โ
