How Peer Mentoring can help you
A mentor is a trained and experienced student who provides guidance and support to new students at Bloomsbury Institute. The mentoring relationship is informal and structured, allowing the mentor to help the mentee with any academic, social, financial, or personal concerns.
Mentors meet with their mentees approximately every two weeks during the first two terms to discuss any questions or issues they may have. The mentor is there to support the mentee throughout their university journey and help make the most of their university experience.
What students say
"I have gained a sense of confidence and independence, and I feel more responsible. I have also found it easier to connect with people. My mentor has been instrumental in helping me take chances and succeed in my university journey."
"I aim to be a supportive mentor and help my mentee navigate the challenges that come with starting university. I share my own experiences and lessons learned, hoping to provide helpful insights and guidance for a smoother and more successful university experience."
