Comments from nominator:
They have provided me with a memorable learning experience.
Mentor comments:
Mentoring accomplishes two objectives for me: (1) it allows me to connect with my students on a personal, human level -- they are people that leave an imprint onto my life and mentoring helps me connect with them; (2) it allows me to help them navigate school in the context of their lives -- whether it is coming back to school after a hiatus, or making sure they have what it takes for them to be successful when they leave. Each of them needs something specific , and being able to connect with them meaningfully enables me to figure out what they need and provide it.
