Please describe the best part of working on this project with your mentor.
The best part of the project working with my mentor was when i was making graphs.My mentor helped me understand.It also, made me feel more confident using excel.
The best part of working on this project with your mentor is that we get to work professionalsat stock because you get to find out what they do for a living.Also because i got to lrean about the of stock market.I like that we got to us the computers all the time.
The best part of the Telementoring program was the Vocabulary Sort. I think so because it was the easiest activity and that it helped me grow in my knowledge of stock market terms and vocabulary. I think that was the best part of the Telementoring program.
The best part of working on this project was messaging my mentor. It was fun learning about new things like stock markets. Sending messages to my mentor was the best of working with my mentor this quarter.
1. The best part about working on this project with my mentor was when we got tell my mentor a little about me and when she told me a little about herself and when we got to do all the project knowing my mentor would be there to catch me when I’m confused or when I’m falling in all my projects.
The best part about the project and working with my mentor is.... I had a chance to learn amazing things about the stock market. Now I know about the other companies and how they get more money as it rises or it dies. That was my best time in the telementor program!!!!!!
The best part of working on this project was doing the vocabulary sort. First of all, this was the best because we had to search it up on Google. Second of all, I also liked because there was interesting word we had never seen before. Third of all, I liked it because we sort of had to guess. Finally, it is the best because you have a word bank with you to help you.
The best part of working on this project was making the graphs. Mostly because it showed us a lot of the companies stock and how they worked and how much money it went up by or how muck money they lost. Another reason is because we where able to chose what stock we wanted to do research on. In conclusion the graphs where my favorite part of this program.
The best part of working on this project is that I learned how to Excel. I didn't know what a stock or the stock market was. But the best part was I got to meet a mentor who understood what I needed help with and was able to make me understand. I liked this program because it taught me in fun way.
The best part of working with my mentor was the charts/graphs. She had helped me with the questions I had and she reminded me every three days about my mistakes I need to fix. She also had done some work to make my chart look better. I enjoyed this experience doing the charts and turning them into graphs.
The best part of the project was using computers.The reason i say that is because computers are fun.The next reason is because we computer got to play on computers .The last reason is because we got sit on the computers .That was the best part of this project.
The best part of working on this project with my mentor on this project was talking / communicating about my stocks. It was my favorite part because I thought it helped me with talking to someone when there not around you. Also, because he sent a few images about the apple stock I was working on and it helped by understanding more about what apple does. In conclusion, that was my favorite part.

The best part of working on this project was making the graphs. It was frustrating at first but then i got used to it. I enjoyed checking Yahoo Finance to get the information I needed to use instead of having to check it all online. I really enjoyed this part.
The best part of working in this project was getting to know tips to make my projects much easier. But most of the part I enjoyed everything. I really enjoyed this program although it was tough in some of the projects.
What was the best part of working on this project with my mentor? The best part was working on the charts and graphs, and my mentor telling me what to fix on the charts and graphs. One of the parts from my charts he told to work on was my dates and how to put them in order. In conclusion, that was my most favorite part of working with my mentor.
The best part of the project was communicating with my mentor. I thought of this because, knowing that someone very far away can hear what you say and reply back to me was very interesting. In conclusion, communication was one of the best parts of this program.
The best part of working with my mentor was getting to know how to make charts into graphs .With just…let’s say 2 in one All in all, I liked making graphs.
Please share any other academic areas where you'd like to receive help from a mentor.
I would like help with social studies and math. I would like help with social studies research because, sometimes i think its hard and i want to understand it better. I also,want help with math because its hard for me and i would like to understand it better.
I'd like to get some help in language arts because i struggle to read and write. It is hard for me to read and write because it is hard for me to read.Also because have bad writing
There are no academic areas that I would like to receive help with, but I would probably like to receive help in Technology. From what I know, my mentor knows a lot about technology, so that made a difference in my learning experience. In that case, there aren't any academic areas I would like to receive help with.
Some other class I’d like to receive help from is science. My telementor can tell me to watch science things, like a butterfly hatching from its cocoon. That is another class I’d like to receive help from a telementor.
2. The part where I had to get a little help from my mentor was on the excel spreadsheet with my closing prices with my different stocks. I wasn’t sure if they were the right dates or if I was looking in the wrong place for the dates.
I would love help from a mentor is in science. I would want help in science because I want to learn more about other things during science.Also that I wanted a better grade in the class.
I would like to receive some help from a mentor so that my mentor could help me on math. I really need help on math specially multiplication. If I had a math mentor I will tell my mentor to help me on everything I need help on .Finally that is why I need a math mentor.
The academic I need help with is language arts. I need help with language arts because my grade is a little low in language arts. I could use the help on language arts because i don't understand what we are learning about most of the time. In conclusion I need help on language arts so it can help my grades improve.
I would want this program for Science, Language Arts, and robotics. I would want robotics because our school has STEM which stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. In that class we are learning about robots and how we can use them to make the world a better place. I would want it for L.A because this program made math fun so why can’t it make L.A fun. I would want this for science because I struggle in it and I know it would be a great way to learn about it.
I would want a mentor to help me in social studies. I could get a few answers correct. I have lots of questions and I need help. I have trouble in finding the different types of degrees in longitude and latitude lines. Therefore, social studies is a subject where I need help from a mentor.
I would like to have a mentor in language arts.The reason I say that is because I want a mentor in language arts is because I cant read very well.The last reason is other reason is because language arts is hard for me.The last reason is I don't like to read.That is why would like a mentor in language arts.
Another academic area I would like a mentor in is Language Arts. I would like help in Language Arts because I am not doing so well. Also I wish I would take it more seriously. In conclusion that is another class I would like a mentor in.
Another academic area I would like a mentor in is Language Arts. I would like help in Language Arts because I am not doing so well. Also I wish I would take it more seriously. In conclusion that is another class I would like a mentor in.
Social studies are another academic area I have trouble with. I don’t get along with anybody in that class and it’s advanced so I don’t really understand it. I have been asking for help but still don’t understand much of it. Longitude and latitude confuse me a lot. Social studies are another academic class that I would like help from a mentor for.
If my mentor asked me for any academic help I would say that I need help in language arts. I would ask for help in that class because I want to raise my grade. I do know for sure that all other classes are good.
I would like other academic areas from my mentor. Where I would like help from my mentor would be in language arts because it is hard to understand all the different types of grammar you need in your writing like were your punctuation is supposed to go or spelling. All in all, that is where I would like help from my mentor.
I would like to receive mare help on the math on this project. Out of all the academics in the project, math was the most difficult. In the end, I suggest to provide more help on the math side of the project.
I still think I need help with long division… when it gets up to when you I don’t know add, subtract, or add. That is the 6th step I mean I get every step but not sixth Mrs.Jostes says to keep on practicing. All in all, It’s not much that I need help.
What advice would you give your mentor as he or she works with a new student?
The advice i would give would be to give the student more expatiation.Also, to message the student more. it would be helpful to attack links to help them more with their project.
You should toke about a company that is doing good.Also i liked that we take about twitter because he cape me up to date with twitter.
Some advice I would give my mentor as he works with another student would be to use more grade appropriate vocabulary. Some words my mentor used were very difficult to understand. That would be some advice I would give my mentor.
Advice I would give my telementor is to give more explanation. If it looks hard to understand the message they sent us kids. If it was a message they sent you that were hard to understand.
3. Some advice I would give both of my mentors is to be a little more specific with what you are trying to tell them to fix tell them maybe how. Or where he or she can fix or find the right information.
The advice I would give to my mentor if he or she works with a new student is... I would say is "have fun and have a great time." That is what I would say to my mentor if he or she works with a new kid.
Mentors should watch out for the length of the length h of the message not to long not to short. Mentors should watch out for the length because if the message is to long it will make the student to frustrate more with all the writing. Student could also not finish their work because reading the entire message and this could be a part of their grade. This is also bad if the message is short because the mentor would not give to many details. Finally the message should not be too long and not too long.
My advise is to use words that are easier for students to read and understand more of what they are saying. Also they wont get confused much and thing might go a little easier for the students to understand so they can do it more fast and learn a little more. In conclusion that is my advise to the mentors.
I would want my mentor to be the same way he was to me with just a few changes. I would want my mentor to ask more questions about us so that we create a better bound. I would also want him to explain more for example, he would tell me to put down a tittle bar on Excel but he didn’t tell me how to.
I would give my mentor advice about the length of her messages when she has a new student to work with. The messages should be at most ten to twelve sentences each message including lots of detail. In conclusion, my mentor needs to make the length of her messages shorter.
i would say communicate more.The reason i say that is because she didn't message a lot.The next reason i say that is because i had 3 or 4 backup messages.the last reason is because she didn't give much feed back.That's why i think she should communicate more.
Some advice I have I have is explain everything at the level of his or her student. I think he or she should do that because his or her student understands it better. In conclusion that is some advice I have for my mentor.
Some advice I have I have is explain everything at the level of his or her student. I think he or she should do that because his or her student understands it better. In conclusion that is some advice I have for my mentor.
This is more from me it would be for him to actually send a message back. I usually had a backup mentor which wasn't always as easy because they all kind of had different advice. Overall that’s about all I would say he could improve on.
The advise I would give to my mentor is to tell him that maybe next time it would be a good idea to write at appropriate grade level reading. They should also maybe try to give links or hints about what website to research on.
Advice I would give my mentor. Advice I would give him for his next student would be not to use big interesting and confusing words. Other advice I would give him would be add some websites for the kids to find information on their project. Over all, that is all the advice I would give my mentor.
I would give the mentor advice about the detail they put into their messages. In some recent message they put a lot of detail into it, and I couldn’t understand the basic concept my mentor was trying to tell me. I couldn’t get what she was saying so I did the assignment incorrectly. In conclusion, I would suggest that the mentors should level down their messages with the detail just a bit.
Dome advice I give the mentors is not to write so much it looks like an essay or a newspaper. And not to use so many advanced words because we haven’t learned them. In Conclusion, PLEASE do not write allot.

Would you be interested in receiving mentoring support from professionals in the future?
6 - No
12 - Yes
Please describe why or why not.
i would like to receive a mentoring professional. i think it would be very nice.But only if i did a good job on it. if i did the first person i would show would be my mom.I'll show it to her because she very nice and ill show her the good job i did.
Ian had to check out of school early.
I would probably not be interested in receiving professional mentoring in the future. This is because I have such a busy schedule inside and outside of school. That is why I would most likely not be interested in receiving professional mentoring in the future.
I would like to receive mentoring support from professionals. They would help me on my homework or just class work like my social studies homework class. He or she would help me a lot on my classes and I might learn more about stock markets.
I would like mentoring support from professionals in the future because I can get a little more understanding in life and my job. Also because I can remember how the stock market works and remember how to stocks.
In the future I would be so interested in receiving mentor support from a professional. I am interested because I would want to learn more!!!!! Also I would learn more about the other side of the stock market!
I say yes because some times i really need help on math. Math is really hard for me specialy multiplication. If i had a math mentor my math skills would tottaly improve. I really need a math mentor.When i grow up i wish i could be a math mentor.
I would not be interested because I would probably know What to do. Another reason is because it was a little difficult to understand what they wanted us to do and what to search up so we can find the stock prices and the date it changed. In conclusion that's why I wont be interested in doing this project more than once.
I would be interested in mentor help further on. I always like help with my work because it makes me do better and make more sense in what I’m saying. I would want help because they could also give me some advice when I need it. So yes I would want mentor help further on.
I would be interested in being mentored by professionals. The reason I say that is because having a mentor can make your learning a lot better. Therefore, I would be interested in having a professional expert.
I wouldn't like to get mentoring support from professionals. the reason is say that is because i don't have time for it.Also because i play football and i takes up half my time.The last reason is say that is because the other half of my time would like to be with my family.those are the reasons i would not like another mentor.
I would because it has really helped with doing better with my work. Also, I think so because it would help another student in the future. In conclusion I would enjoy it in the future.
I would because it has really helped with doing better with my work. Also, I think so because it would help another student in the future. In conclusion I would enjoy it in the future.
I would but wouldn't. I would because I enjoyed having someone going step by step on stocks and getting feedback. Also I wouldn't because I was getting lost because I had so many different mentors. These are reasons why I would but wouldn't like receiving mentoring support for a professional in the future.
I would be interested to have support in the future because it would be helpful if they give hints about the homework or maybe even have practice problems.
I would not like mentor support in the future. I would not because I would like help in social studies because it is hard in reading a map. I would not want to make a map. In conclusion, I would not want to be receiving any mentor messages in the future.
No, because my mentor was very successful with her knowledge of this web sites and the stock market. I received wonderful feedback and help on this program and my mentor new what she was doing. Overall, I do not need a professional to guide me for my mentor is very knowledgeable of this project.
I would be interested because math gets Harder and HARDER and math is something I really need help with. Therefore, I think I am going to need help later on.
Was this the first time you've been part of a formal mentoring program?

Please describe the most difficult parts of working on this project with your mentor.
The most difficult part was when i messaged my mentor and concision, my mentor didn't respond quickly to me. Also, when i had to copy/paste my prices and dates for my graphs.
Ian had to check out of school early.
The most difficult part of working on this project was researching 3-5 stocks. I think so because it was quite difficult finding information worthy of documentation. That is why researching was the most difficult part of the project.
9. The most difficult part on working on this project was copy and paste. I would get tired of going back and forth every time and my hand would just get tired. Even though I got tired I wouldn't get tired.
The most difficult part about this project with my mentor was understanding how to fix my mistakes. Where I can find the area or place where I can find the real facts or information about my mistake.
The most difficult part of working on the project with my mentor is the Excel charts! It is really FRUSTRATING!!!!!!!!!!! We had to copy and paste a million times!!! We also had to upload and it didn’t work!!! THAT WAS MY FRUSTRATING TIME ON THE PROJECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The most difficult thing working with my mentor was when I had to turn the charts into graphs .This was really hard because we had to look and find the graph. After that we had to format sell so that the price was correct and also the date. Finally, and hopefully this won’t be hard ever again.
The most difficult part was researching the companies stock and there history with the stock. My first reason was because they tried to help us in a way that is not basically telling us the answer so it was kinda hard to do what they wanted us to do or how to find the answer. In conclusion that was the most difficult part of the Telementor program.
The most difficult thing for me on this project was when we looked up stock prices and dates. On yahoo finance sometimes our mentor would tell us one price was wrong but when we checked the site it would show the one they said was wrong was right. So it showed up different on their screen. It was also difficult when we had to start doing it at home.
The difficult part of this project was doing the yahoo finance part with the copying and pasting. I had to highlight every single closing price and press control C and control V. It hurt my left hand a lot. In conclusion, yahoo finance was the hardest part of this project.
The most difficult part was not getting much feedback. the reason is because i wouldn't know what to fix. Also when i didn't get feed back it was late.The last reason i had late assignments for telementoring.That was the most difficult is what is the most difficult.
The most difficult parts were putting my dates in and the closing prices. It was difficult because it took a while and my mentor and I were both having trouble with it. In conclusion these were the most difficult parts.
The most difficult parts were putting my dates in and the closing prices. It was difficult because it took a while and my mentor and I were both having trouble with it. In conclusion these were the most difficult parts.
The most difficult part of working with a mentor was that there wasn't always feedback. I didn't always get to know what my mistakes were because I didn't always get a message back. I guess I would have like it more if I had got that support that I was missing.
I am interested in receiving mentoring support from professionals in the future. That's because they could help me raise my grade by having feedback or tips. I would be interested for many other reasons but these were just a few.
The most difficult part had to be changing the dates. The other reason was coping and pasting. Overall, that was the problem me and my mentor had.
The most difficult part was incorrect charts. What I mean by this is being held back from the assignment at hand. I would finish the chart but get negative feedback that my charts had some incorrect data on them. When I say negative I mean feedback that is helpful to incorrect data. I would redo and redo but would still be unsuccessful in completing the carts. In conclusion, the most difficult part was being held back from the recent assign met because of incorrect charts.
The hardest thing was coping and pasting almost the time… I got bored just ‘copy & paste’. Plus I got two mentors it was hard because when I was about to send my new mentor Kari I message It said Dear, Michael I quickly changed it. Therefore, I did have some problems.
Did we miss something? If so, please share any additional comments you might have about your experience in the program.

I really enjoyed the program but there were some kinks that needed fixing up. Like how the place where you put your message I would enjoy it if it had a better checking system so that we don’t have to copy our message off of Microsoft Word. If we could just type it on the message box and the thing would be like Word it be great.
My only comment I have on this experience with Telementoring is that mentors need to make their messages a bit shorter. Some of the mentors send like a ten page message that would take two days to read. Overall, Telementoring was a fun project that I really enjoyed a lot. I hope to do it again soon.
NO
I don't have any feed back it was great
I don't have any feed back it was great
I do not think anything was really missed. I’m happy about everything that happened. Overall I really enjoyed the program and am glad I got to participate.
Next time you guys choose to work with kids again you guys should probably make sure the kids are comfortable with what mentor they have and comfortable by enjoying the projects. Those projects were good but it would also be nice to do a hands on project.
