To me a peer mentor is someone who others can come to for support and encouragement. A peer mentor is there to help others, and be stable person that someone feels they can talk to. This person provides advice on anything and everything. A peer mentor ranges from showing another student to their classes on the first day, to someone others can trust with personal problems. Peer mentors should have many good qualities and characteristics. I think the most important thing a mentor should be is proactive. They should be prepared for any situation before it happens, rather than figuring out how to deal with it after. Another important quality that a peer mentor must have is the ability to adapt, mostly because their are many different types of people
