What can a mentor help with?
With their knowledge and experience, a mentor can provide a different perspective on your time at university.
- It’s helpful because mentors have shared the same experiences and will have dealt with similar issues which will enable them to signpost you to the correct support or guidance services
- Mentors will have a positive approach and will help you to build confidence when dealing with new experiences
- They can tell you more about the University and the wonderful city of Liverpool.
Mentors will:
- hold virtual drop-in sessions
- deliver general wellbeing sessions
- they will also be available via Handshake to answer any queries you might have, just send them a quick message!
Some of the things they might be able to help you with include:
- where to find local amenities such as the nearest doctors, shops, cafés, nightlife
- some general information on your course or University as a whole
- useful hacks for time management, routine and general wellbeing – basically, hacks to help you keep on top of things.
