Throughout my high school, I always had mentors from teachers to local community leaders to guide me in time management, developing leadership skills, and having a passion for giving back to my community. They were the support that I needed during times, where I felt I could not manage everything anymore. I want to be the same support system that they were for me for another student because I know how important it is to have someone to say, “you got this.” I want to help students to love the world of education as much as I do and learn how great it feels to help someone during their times of need. Mainly, I want to be the anchor for a student that feels overwhelmed and stressed out. I feel as if being a peer mentor will enable me to best help
