Mentoring Someone Younger.

After four years of building self-awareness, agency, and the practice of contribution, a teenager is in a genuine position to offer something real to someone younger walking a few steps behind them. This module treats mentoring not as a formal program to join, but as a relationship to build with intention, whether that's a younger sibling, a student at their school, or someone in their community. Passing forward what they've learned deepens it further, in the same way teaching a thing tends to clarify it for the person doing the teaching.

• What makes a mentoring relationship genuinely useful to the person being mentored.
• How to identify someone younger in their own life who could benefit from their specific experience.
• A realistic way of starting and sustaining that relationship, without over-formalizing it.
• Practice offering one specific, useful piece of what they've learned to that person.
