A great Class Mentor is someone who’s enthusiastic and ready to actively support a group of young people, bringing patience, encouragement, and an open mind to the role. While no prior experience is required, mentors should feel comfortable working with young people and be able to communicate with them in an appropriate and engaging way. Basic IT skills are also useful for navigating workshop materials and supporting digital tasks.
