WHAT DO MENTORS GAIN FROM MENTORING?
Mentors often say that they get more out of their mentoring experience than their mentees do. They perceive the experience of being identified as a mentor and the process of mentoring in highly positive terms. Mentoring allows them to make sense of their own past experiences and current challenges, gain insight into the day-to-day lives of youth, and develop positive, more reciprocal relationships with youth.
