About A+ Angels Mentoring Program
Most of us have had a teacher, super-visor or coach who has been a mentor to us and made a positive difference in our lives. Those people wore many hats, acting as delegators, role models, cheerleaders, policy enforcers, advocates, and friends. Mentors assume these different roles during the course of a relationship, and share some basic qualities:
​
-
A sincere desire to be involved with a young person
-
Respect for young people
-
Active listening skills
-
Empathy
-
Ability to see solutions and opportunities
-
Flexibility
