Proud of my Mentee

I have been mentoring an amazing BA Fine Art student at UAL since February this year. She is from a working class background, and we have been having interesting conversations about use of language in the arts and the transition from Uni to employment. She has been working for student services throughout studying. I was excited to recently look around her degree show with her. She has now graduated with first class honours, and she has secured a job in a primary school as a Learning Assistant from September. It has been a privilege to go on this journey with her over the past six months. I see mentoring as a two-way process and learn loads as a mentor. I would definitely recommend it to others considering becoming a mentor.
