Why the Mentoring Program?
From our interaction with young children of schools
and colleges, we found that a large number of our children
do not have an adult who can share their educational
and professional experience with them in their immediate
family. Thus, these children miss many good opportunities
in life though they have the potentials and the capabilities
to rise high in life. Therefore, the Counselors thought
by starting this simple progam, the Mentors can reach
these children and provide them the support and the
guide in addition to the two existing Counselors.
What is this Mentoring Program?
In this program the Counselors at DOE will connect
the child with an adult whose interests and goals are
same as that of the child. The adult, will basically
act like a counselor and provide the necessary information
regarding the adult's specialized field or his experience.
For example, the adult is a lawyer, then we'll connect
a child who wants to become a lawyer with this adult.
So that the adult can give him or her the right guidance
and accurate information regarding the career through
email or by post. By guiding the child, the Mentor not
only motivates the child but also help the child build
self-confidence and self-esteem which are vital to success.
Who can become a Mentor?
Any educated adult Tibetan who is interested in supporting,
counseling and providing reinforcement and constructive
example to young Tibetan boys & girls in schools
and colleges.
