Please describe the best part of working on this project with your mentor.
It was very helpful to have another perspective while working on our project. Michelle also provided advice from experience
The best part of working with my mentor was the suggestions and advice such as presentation skills. Another guidance I received was planning my time and organizing procedures.
The mentor guides you along the right path. And asks question you wouldn't ask yourself.
Please share any other academic areas where you'd like to receive help from a mentor.
I would like to receive help for future engineering projects.
Maybe english, as I am not a good english student.
What advice would you give your mentor as he or she works with a new student?
Michelle was great and there is no way that I could improve her mentoring ability
The advice I would give to my mentor is to connect with student and communicate efficiently
Don't always expect prompt replies to emails.
