Beyond Norfolk - Relocation and Connection - from the trainee mentors.
“This project is a fabulous opportunity to create a difference in young people’s lives.”
“I feel more confident in my ability to ask open-ended questions that allow the mentees to become fulfilled and allow them to come to their own conclusions. I feel more confident in my understanding of my own morals and values that aid the way I help/support others.”
“Throughout this training Susie opened my perspective and made me realise that mentoring is all about getting the young person to go through step-by-step acknowledging their issue and coming up with their own solution that suits them best.”
“I feel more confident being able to make small talk and make conversations flow easier. Susie taught us some great strategies on how to make a conversation flow and not feel as clinical whilst following prompts.”
“It was about understanding yourself, and ways you can support others. Learning the techniques appropriate to use when interacting with mentees.”
“Having completed this training, I believe I’m more equipped to hold strong, informative and knowledgeable conversations with people”.
“I believe mentoring has such high potential in creating differences in someone’s life. This training has opened the possibilities and opportunities for mentors and mentees.”
