Transition Mentoring is valued by both mentees and mentors. Don't just take our word for it, read what our students have to say below or watch videos of students talking about their mentoring experiences.
You could watch a video of Lilit, a Transition Mentor, talking about Transition Peer Mentoring.
Laurence was a Pre-Entry E-mentor and a Transition Mentor to both a student from his subject and an exchange student.
Mentees
- "Excellent - gives students the support they need to fully maximise their university experience.”
- "Brilliant to be supported by people who have been where you are and have got through it."
- "It made me feel better about being at university."
- “I felt that because I lived off campus I was missing out to some extent and at times felt isolated. I thought that to have a mentor to help and reduce those anxieties would make any other worries I might have easier to manage.”
Mentors
-
"It's a great experience to be able to help others based on your own experiences."
-
"I feel that I was able to help my mentee and I think my mentee found the information very valuable and helped her to prepare for university life. I gave her information about the University, parts of the course, the workload and other general advice.”
-
“I enjoyed helping first year students settle in, being available to answer any ‘silly’ questions that arise while entering university life and environment, and it gave me the chance to think about positive aspects of university life and refresh my knowledge about the subject”
