Dear students,
In the Balu und Du mentoring program, students from all disciplines act as mentors(Balu) for a primary school child(Mogli) for one year. The teachers at our partner elementary school and specialists from independent youth welfare organizations nominate the children for this prevention program.
What do I do as a mentor?
1. As a student, you meet up with your child once a week to play, explore and try things out together. You decide together with your child exactly what the afternoons will look like - depending on their interests, needs and possibilities. Each tandem develops its own dynamic and a variety of learning opportunities open up along the way - often for both!
2. In exchange with other mentors and the coordinator, you will practice reflection and peer counseling as part of a weekly support seminar and develop new ideas and approaches together. Professional input supplements the practical content.
3. You will also document each meeting in an online diary tool.
