Hello to all, I hope whoever is reading this is having a wonderful day no matter the time. I have bounced back and fourth more than a game of ping pong regarding my Career. I would genuinely love something more than advice/ guidance/ assistance on how to navigate or even figure out my career. I am graduating soon with a double major In psychology/ sociology, most of all my experience has been teaching kids on with Autism. It has brought me endless memories yet I get paid barely enough and lack hours significantly. My major was originally Nursing, maybe I should go back to that, I don’t know. I just have these moments of feeling extremely overwhelmed and even behind that I’m not doing enough. I have cut out many had habits, ending a relationship and dedicated myself to figuring out my path. I really could just use some assistance I can’t even lie.

Hi All, Hope everyone is having a fun Sunday, I'm currently a masters in CS student in Australia, And I have 2.9 years of experience 2 years of experience in operations and 9 months of experience in software engineering, I'm looking for mentors who can guide me through

• How to transition into software engineering
• Strategies for career growth and development
• Technical challenges or problems I'mfacing
• General advice and feedback on my work

I learnt it the hard way that my master degree will not contribute to anything, I seriously need helo

I’m starting my life over soon by moving to a new city. Current plan is to take a step back, align my long-term goals, and fill in the gaps from there.

25F with an interest in business management consultancy / product management / vendor management.

Mostly looking for a sound board as I figure a few things out.

As a mentor, I'm going insane:

• Constantly following up with ghost students, to see if they are completing their tasks
• Sending endless reminder messages
• Having the same 'what's blocking you' conversations
• Watching potential wasted because students won't do the work

For mentors with more than a couple of students:

• How do you track student progress?
• What's your system for student accountability?
• At what point do you cut ties with inactive students?
• What % of your students actually complete assignments?

Mentors What's your solution to this? Do you use any software for it? Am I alone on this?

As a hands-on mentor, my reality:

• Students need daily guidance to get results
• Can't effectively track who's doing the work
• Spend alot of time checking individual progress, and following-up

To other high-touch mentors:

• How do you manage daily student tracking?
• What's your system for student accountability?
• How many hours do you spend on follow-up?
• What actually works for getting students to take action?

What softwares are you using, tools? how much are you paying?

Hello all,

A bit about me: I've always had a passion for coding and technology and started college for it back in 2014. During my time in school, I began to feel that the cost of education wasn’t worth the eventual payoff. I believed I could teach myself the necessary concepts and skills to land a job. The journey turned out to be much tougher than I anticipated, but I eventually landed a role as a software engineer, working primarily in .NET development and handling various side tasks like identity and access management, as well as some Power BI work. Unfortunately, I was affected by the mass tech layoffs last year and haven’t been able to secure a new role since. On the bright side, that time off allowed me to discover my interest in Networking, and I’ll be heading back to school for it this December.

Even though I’m starting to find my direction, I know there’s still a lot I have to learn. I’d love any advice on how to make myself more marketable or ways to further develop my skills and knowledge. Any insights would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

So I have this assignment from my college where I have to look for someone willing to become my mentor helping me with my professional and personal life. I am hoping to one day start a company on my own. Dm me if any one is interstested or has any questions. (Ps. I need to be able to contact the mentor easily through email or contact number)

I know there are some free or close to free mentorship programs, did you participate in any? Or maybe you have heard a recommendation?

I have a commercial idea that I need help with. Preferably someone who is confident with hosting webinars and is interested in providing a service and system to help others achieve their goals, and being an ongoing contributor to its future development.

Happy to provide more details if the above resonates.

22 M with all the talent in the world, but I'm so set on destroying my life, giving into addiction. Starving myself on a weekly basis, lying to family and friends. Owing money, living to paycheck to paycheck. I blow my 500 dollar check in a day. I don't have any friends. The only friends I have is my coworkers who are 10-20 years older. They give me rides and saved my job, and buy me stuff. I had an car accident, it went viral. I had a mental breakdown, knowing my mistake went viral and I can never live it down. I no showed work for 11 days, I called my dad. I told the accident and I was feeling down, he said he will call me tomorrow and send me some money, then he proceeded to ghost me. On the 11th day of me missing my job, I called one of the older guys that I worked with and he asked if I had any checks there. He told me that everyone misses me and was asking about me. He said "if I call the head supervisor and get your job back, will you come in." I said yes. He did that exactly and he called me back telling me to get dressed because the supervisor wanted to talk to me. I talked to him and got my job back, then he took me out to Chic Fil la

Long story short, I am a first gen university graduation and I am currently looking for a role in the most lucrative areas of banking, like that of investment banking. Unfortunately I know no one who has a role within banking so I am here on reddit , trying to persuade one of you redditors to take a chance on me.

As stated - searching for a mentor.

-To help refine my mind and practices, achieve balance point out blind spots.

- work opportunity (if avail,) - where my faculties can be utilized constructively + wisdom imported, by a master.

I am: abstract thinker, love research, connecting dots and new systems. Curious. Speak couple languages, obsessed with wide range of science's and ideas.. Socially aware. Try to be integral thinker, work on meta-cognition and self correction. Humble, yet assertive.

Landscape:

I'm 34. After some rollercoasters got into individuation process and holistic approach.

Ongoing progress, some blocks may need to be named. Have been mapping my cognitive/physiological signature/build. Doing inner works, via various systems, exploring what brings results.

Effects of "giftedness", ND, ADHD may be in play. Ready to get supercharged by input of one capable to assist, share tools and wisdom, practicality. No one around, with perspective to be of help.

Never professionally tested, don't care about the "diagnosis" by itself, nor looking to satisfy ego.

While i already have done tons of "mapping" my own mind and its ways, I'm looking for practical help to refine and "organize" all of the fruits of work done/ongoing.

Have unique life story, strengths and weaknesses. Finally seem to have direction and vision for fulfilling path, while making world better. The diamond is still rough. Positive, uplifting approach, no matter what's going on. Frame everything via own agency and responsibility.

Anything constructive is appreciated.

Peace and Love

Ever since COVID, ive been using the internet as a education platform. I always enjoyed the connivence of online learning simply because Its so easy to have access to "big" and "successful" people, and usually these "successful" people have their own mentorship / course.

However Ive always been disappointed, and frustrated....

Ive always struggled to get results. Maybe im learning from the wrong people? Maybe its the mentor? Or maybe its because of the lack of structure In the lessons the mentor is giving me.

Simply put, Ive always failed to get the results I wanted when learning online.

I also have a few mentor friends who say that having too many students could also be a downside. As the classroom increases, quality decreases. Another huge problem for mentors is that mentees are very inconsistent, and unpredictable. Sometimes the mentor doesn't even know if the student is even doing what he/she is supposed to be doing.

Its such a weird dynamic. To me online education is falling....

One last thing, so that I know im not alone with this. I have some questions

Questions: For Students:

• What's the biggest factor in whether you get results or not?

• What would make you more likely to follow through?

For Mentors:

• How do you ensure student success?

• What's your biggest challenge in delivering results?

• How do you track student progress?

I've been interested in the real estate industry for a long time now yet I know so little, I was hoping to find a mentor that would teach me real estate for free since I am tight on money.

I’m excited to share that I just landed my first internship as a pentester at a company! About a year and a half ago, I finished college and found myself really interested in cybersecurity, a booming field, but I had no knowledge in it. I started learning on my own, but I often felt lost and like I was missing key pieces.

That’s when I discovered Masaud Ahmad (@masaudsec). I enrolled in his bootcamp, and it was a game-changer. Masaud guided me through daily Zoom sessions, breaking down complex topics into manageable pieces. He made sure I understood everything, and he gave me weekly tasks to put my learning into practice. In just three months, I gained more knowledge than I thought possible.

Once I built that foundation, I was able to continue learning on my own, and whenever I hit a roadblock, I knew I could reach out to Masaud for help. His support was invaluable, and he even offers lifetime access to his course materials, so I can revisit them whenever I need.

I’m really grateful for his guidance, which helped me secure this job. If you’re looking for a mentor, I can’t recommend Masaud enough. You can find him on social media @masaudsec, and reach out to him on WhatsApp at +92 327 5104800. Best of luck to everyone on their journey!

Hey, I'm so sorry, I am not sure if it's a true place for it or not, I'm a teenager, my parents got divorced when I was young, I live with my mother and she's very supportive, I feel so embarrassed to say this, but I actually feel the absence of a father, i wanted to know if there is anyway i might get a chance to have a father, just supportive, I am not looking for awful things, really. I'm sorry maybe this is not the correct place.

Hi everyone,

I’m a 28-year-old woman with a deep passion for video game art, but I’m just starting out and have no experience yet in 3D animation. I’m really eager to learn but feeling a bit overwhelmed and unsure of where to begin. That’s why I’m hoping to find a mentor who can guide me through the basics and help me build a strong foundation in 3D animation, specifically for games.

I’m excited to learn from someone with experience in the field, whether that’s advice on software, tips on learning the fundamentals, or insights into what it’s like to work in game art. If you’re willing to mentor a complete beginner, I’d be incredibly grateful!

Please feel free to drop a comment or send me a DM if you’re interested in helping out.

Thanks so much!
