Mentor

You will do this as a mentor

You guide a vulnerable student between 11 and 14 years in his / her home environment with everything that is important for the school results and the well-being of the pupil. You visit your pupil once a week for about 1 hour for 12 to 18 months.

Points for attention for guidance are varied. These are vulnerable students for whom the switch to further education can be risky. You can think of:

• Children with language or arrears
• Children with limited support from their immediate environment
• Children with a plague background or other social indicators
• Children with parents who are not familiar with the Dutch school system
