MENTORING
For there is no single definition of mentoring - it
depends on why, where and by whom it is used.
But the common core of every relationship is voluntary
mentoring support one person (mentee) other
(mentor). The main pillars include support for the
initiative, guiding and directing the personal
development. (Broumovská,2010)
A NEW VIEW
"The volunteer or counselor can become a mentor or
other person who may have a positive impact on client
development, particularly by bringing another
new insight into the life of the client.
(Brumovská, 2010)
CLASIC MENTORING
The combination of an experienced mentor to
the young, less experienced provides
support and advice, encourages him and is
interested in his personality, social and
cognitive development.

1. You are Supportive
By far, the most important role of a mentor is to support and
encourage young people, particularly as they struggle to
overcome obstacles and solve problems. When young people feel
down, upset with their families, or unhappy in their life
situations, mentors are beside them, letting them talk about
anything and reminding them of their innate value.
Marilyn Price-Mitchell, PhD
2. You are an Active Listener
Mentors listen first and speak last. Many teens mentioned how
little they feel listened to by most adults. Often, they feel inferior
even when they have good ideas. But mentors are different. They
always listen, even when they are not obligated to do so.
3. You Push -- Just Enough
As parents can attest, most teens don’t respond well to being
pushed out of their comfort zones, particularly within families.
But teens really like to have high expectations set for them – both
academically and personally. They appreciate when mentors push
them beyond what they may have imagined they could
accomplish. In fact, this is likely the reason why mentored youth
from disadvantaged backgrounds are twice as likely to attend
college.
4. You Have Authentic Interest in Youth as Individual
Teens can tell the difference between adults who are
authentically interested in them as individuals and those who are
just playing a role. Mentors engage youth to understand all
aspects of their lives and interests. They value young people’s
ideas and honor their changing feelings and moods.
5. You Foster Self Decision-Making
Good mentors don’t judge young people or impose their own
beliefs on them. Instead they remind teens who they are and help
them believe they have the insights to make good choices.
Knowing they are not being judged helps young people think
through decisions critically, sifting through the deeper values
that will inform the adults they become.
6. You Lend Perspective
Adult mentors provide perspective to young people from their
additional years of life experience. When obstacles seem
overwhelming, mentors help put those challenges in perspective.
They also help young people see both sides of a situation, helping
model the skills of positive skepticism.
