Justin is a sophomore Actuarial Science Major who enjoys listening to music, meeting new people and traveling.
Justin sheds some light on his experience as a Peer Mentor and how it has impacted him personally.
What is your personal definition of a mentor? A mentor is a person who can guide their mentees down the path of success and know when it is time is to let them go rather than hold their hand the entire time.
What was the best part of serving as a peer mentor? The best part had to be seeing your mentees excel in their studies.
If you could do it all over again what would you do differently? Of course, you can always look back on any experience and see your mistakes. However, I believe students want a mentor that they can relate to and that is a human being that makes mistakes.
What did you gain from being a Peer Mentor? My biggest gain was the personal fulfillment of knowing that I built good relationships with my mentees for life.
What piece of advice would you offer a student seeking to be a peer mentor? Make sure your heart is into it. Point Blank
