Peer Mentoring
Attending these workshops with participants will be peer mentors. Mentors will be upperclassmen (juniors and seniors) who will provide personal insight and perspective to topics covered in the workshops. Mentors will also be charged with watching over participants and providing guidance and support as needed. Having mentors will also allow participants to have a personal connection with students whom they can relate to and look up to. Mentoring will provide participants with insight into student life of Asian Americans at Texas A&M.
Through Peer Mentoring IDEAAL Mentors will
- Establish a personal relationship that allows the participant to confide in them
- Aid their understanding and application of the workshops
- Be teachers by providing insight from their experiences as student leaders
- Be role models as young adults and leaders
