Week 5- Hand/professor

After your first visit at Hand what do you think this experience will be like? I think that this experience will be enriching with my foreign student .... and not a Hand Middle School student....
What do you hope to gain out of it? I hope to learn a lot about my student and help them to understand more of our language. Hopefully they will be able to adapt well!
How was your visit with your professor? It was calm, easy, and brief
What was something new you learned about your professor? She attended a mormon college in Utah and has been in college for 10 years (with a 2 year hiatus)
What advice would you give to someone who is about to visit with his or her professor? Don't be afraid; they want to help you and get to know you just as much as you want the help and attention! Also later they are more likely to help you if they know you are invested in helping yourself.

  1. Laura,

    Your posts were only approx. 80-100 words each. They need to be longer and provide more reflection about the questions you were asked. Anytime you get a question about mentoring go ahead and apply it to your expectations for mentoring an international student. Let me know if you have any questions.

    Sincerely,

    Jimmie
