Please describe the best part of working on this project with your mentor.
The best part about working with my mentor was the personal relationship that we formed throughout the process. She was able to give me real life advice on a weekly basis. Her, along with my teacher were able to lead me in a path towards my future.
learning about the oil field
I learned a lot from working with him.
Getting to know Banu was the best part of the program. She also was able to give me a lot of ideas and motivation throughout the program.
Please share any other academic areas where you'd like to receive help from a mentor.
I would like to share areas that deal with writing. Other subjects would be too hard to discuss over e-mail.
none
I am graduating in May, so this is the end of high school.
I really think that getting my mentor to help me with my senior project in English IV or Spanish would be helpful.
What advice would you give your mentor as he or she works with a new student?
I really cant say that I would have her do anything different. She was very fun to work with and she was relaxed, I felt very comfortable talking with her. My only advice for the next person would be for her to keep doing what she is doing, she was great.
dont be boring
To keep doing what they are doing.
I don't have a lot of advice for my mentor. She was great, helpful, dedicated and did everything and more than I could have hoped for.
