Mentoring Program

Dear Nyakasura School Students and Well-Wishers of the School,

I would like to tell you more about the Nyakasura School mentoring program that is beginning in July.   

Former students of the school are committing to spending a Saturday at the school talking to the students about their futures.  Most of the mentors will provide career mentoring for students who are planning  the next phase of their lives be it university studies, learning a trade or entering the work force. The mentors will talk to the students about what it is like in their respective careers, how they got where they are today and what choices you have as you enter a certain career.

Mentors will also have the opportunity to address such topics as HIV/AIDS awareness, Drug Abuse, Human Rights, etc.  

Finally, mentors will also talk about the importance of CV writing, interviewing tips, and other soft skills that are often undiscussed.

It is a simple program and only takes one day out of the lives of the mentors, but provides an immeasurable benefit to the students at the school.

If you would like to participate please email us at nyakasura@gmail.com.
