Through these mentoring relationships we have seen God make an incredible impact in the lives of both the kids, and the life of the school.
FAQ:
What kind of training do I need to become a mentor?
You will need to attend a training provided by the directors of Hero2Hero. You will learn procedures and policies of South Hills and the H2H program plus grade specific strategies for mentoring. You will also be required to complete a student safety course and background check through Ministry Safe. A volunteer application from FWISD is also required.
How often will I mentor?
Once per week between 30-45 minutes—the same day and time each week. This is an agreed upon time and day between the mentor and the teacher.
Do I only mentor one student?
One on one time with a student is one thing that makes the program so successful. However, you can choose to mentor more than one student per week.
What if I am unable to mentor a week or two throughout the school year?
That is not a problem. You will need to communicate with the teacher via email or text to let them know.
I do not have educational experience. Is that ok?
Yes! You have access to experienced master teachers who can help you choose activities and goals for your student.
