Become An Online Mentor To A Youth In-Need

Save to Favorites

Sign up with Be A Mentor to be a Virtual Academic Mentor to a struggling youth.

Many kids are struggling right now with the Pandemic, remote learning, and all the normal difficulties of youth.

We need your special skills and perspective to show a young person what opportunities they have and give them the confidence to work towards big goals.

An Academic Mentor is a trusted caring adult that spends at least one hour per week with their mentee using Be A Mentor’s Virtual Mentoring Platform.

As a Mentor, you will focus on goal setting, homework help, and career exploration. While there may be a focus on homework help in the meetings, these sessions are more than just tutoring. You and your Mentee will form a personal relationship to build resilience, social engagement, and a support network.

Virtual mentoring removes barriers of distance, requires no commute time, and can offer a flexible schedule. However, mentors must be in the United States. Due to our current background check system we are unable to accept anyone outside of the US at this time.

The COVID-19 Pandemic has exacerbated many of the issues that youth were facing before the pandemic.

Now youth are dealing with:

• Isolation
• Anxiety
• Falling behind in their studies
• Low self esteem
• Disbelief in a positive future

Academic Mentoring is life changing for youth.

Mentors Provide:

• One-on-one attention
• Study skills
• Academic support
• Goal setting
• Encouragement for success
