How do I choose the right peer mentor?

Choosing a peer mentor involves considering your goals, the mentor's experience, and their communication style. What are your specific goals?

I want to improve my study habits and get better grades.

That's a great goal! Look for a mentor who has strong study skills and a track record of academic success. Do you have someone in mind?

I was thinking about asking someone from my class.

That's a good idea! Make sure to discuss your goals with them to see if they feel comfortable mentoring you.

What if they say no?

If they decline, don't be discouraged! You can always ask another classmate or seek out a mentor from a different course.
