 2. Objectives of the Practice: - The objective of the scheme to encourage the students to

    discuss their problems with the teacher and escape from suffering in the college by any   

    Problem.

3. The Context: - A Mentor is a person who has professional and life experience and who

     Voluntarily agrees to help a Mentee develop skills, competencies or goals. Put another

     way, a Mentor is an Advisor and Role Model who is willing to invest in the mentee's  

     personal growth and professional development.

4. The Practice: - When a student takes admission in the college, he does not know anything

     about the culture of the college. He/she faces problems during the working hours of 

     college. So college has appointed a Mentor Teacher every 20 to 30 students per group. 

    The students are called mentees. A Special Lecture is allotted in the Time table for the

    Mentor Class. The students share the problem with the Mentor.

    Mentor try every possible way to solve the problems and share his/her thinking and

    experiences with the mentees which helps them to tackle the problems. After the  

    satisfaction of the student, he/she takes another problem. Sometimes a mentor chooses a 

    topic on social awareness and discusses this.

 

5. Evidence of Success: - The students wander in the campus with full confidence. They

    perform their social responsibilities. They do not hesitate while facing any problem and tell

    to their mentor. The environment of the college campus is friendly.

 

 6. Problems Encountered and Resources Required: - Sometimes student hesitates to share his/her problem in front of many students. He cannot express his feeling with his/her mentor and this thing restricts him/her to solve the problem. Being a mentor, he/she faces one of these challenges when dealing with his mentee:

 

Assessing Mentee's background (knowledge and skills).

Identifying Mentee's motivation.

Dealing with Mentee's inexperience (knowledge and skills).

Financial help to Mentees.

Building Mentee's confidence level.

Setting limits and boundaries for the mentor/mentee relationship.
