E-mentoring in the Community
Just because we are all different it doesn't mean we can't learn from each other.
Student e-mentoring is the development of a relationship between an older more experienced person and a younger person. The purpose is to provide support, advice and encouragement to a young person going through a period of transition in their lives, and to become an inspirational role model.
An e-mentor is an adult who, along with parents, provides young people with support, friendship, advice and encouragement. E-mentors are good listeners, people who care, people who want to help young people bring out strengths that are already there. An e-mentoring relationship can take many forms. In the best relationships, the mentor helps the mentee define and achieve his/her goals.
It's a fact that if we give children time it will have an impact on them.
E-mentoring is one of the easiest and most effective methods of giving a child encouragement, support and advice.
