ArtsEd students: reach your study goals with the help of our peer mentors
Did you know the Faculty of Arts and Education hosts its own peer mentoring program?
We know that beginning a new course and navigating the ups and downs of uni life can be overwhelming sometimes. If you’re a commencing student, the ArtsEd Peer Mentoring Program can connect you with a mentor to support you in your transition to university. ArtsEd Peer Mentors are experienced students who are further along in their degree and can provide you with personal guidance and tips to help you succeed in your course.
You are encouraged to join the program if you’re in your first year of an undergraduate or postgraduate course in the Faculty of Arts and Education.
Why should I take part?
Aside from getting inside tips on how to tackle your studies from students who have come before you, the peer mentor program connects you to a larger, invaluable support system.
‘[Peer mentoring] is such a wonderful opportunity to connect with all different kinds of people within the faculty, inside what is a very supportive and inviting environment,’ said ArtsEd peer mentor Rheegan Ellis (pictured).
Peer mentors also provide social support, which is about helping new students connect and build relationships within the Faculty of Arts and Education.
What’s involved?
As part of the program, you will:
- meet weekly with your mentor
- gain insights into University support and resources
- get insider knowledge and tips for your course
- meet other students in your course and the faculty
- get to know other students at social events.
