Mentoring Matters
A Behind the Scenes Peek at our Lives as Graduate Mentors
•
Season 3
•
Episode 22
In this episode we take you on a behind the scenes journey to hear about our graduate student interactions over a random week.
Things we discussed:
- Being intentional with our time
- Planning ahead to reduce the student's stress (and ours!!)
- Helping students prepare for job interviews
- Preparing for student presentations
- And that pesky fact that we do these mentoring things in addition to the rest of our faculty responsibilities!
- It takes constant contact to build a strong relationship with our students, which allows for deeper, more meaningful communication.
We hope you found this snapshot of our weeks useful as you consider your own mentoring strategies.
