Support System
Course Instructor
Your first support is, of course, the course instructor. Do not be afraid to ask questions or raise any issues that might arise.
Peer Mentors
It is also important to have the support of the other mentors. Suggestion: have at least one initial orientation and/or training about the course and the mentors’ roles, plus an additional meeting when students begin their assignments. Setting up pairs of mentors to work together is also a good idea.
