How can I evaluate my relationship with my mentor?

Evaluating your relationship with your mentor involves reflecting on communication, support, and growth. What specific aspects are you concerned about?

I feel like our communication isn't as strong as it could be.

That's a common issue. Consider discussing your communication preferences with your mentor. Have you tried bringing this up?

Not yet, I'm worried it might hurt our relationship.

It's understandable to feel that way, but open communication can strengthen your relationship. You could frame it as wanting to improve your collaboration.

That makes sense. What other factors should I consider?

In addition to communication, consider the mentor's availability, the relevance of their advice, and how well they understand your goals.
