Hi! My name is Scott and I'm a student at CSU, Chico. This fall I will be finishing up the last of my undergraduate coursework and receive my bachelors in English Education. From there, I will continue my education at Chico State and enter the English graduate program in the spring. While studying here at Chico State, I've had the wonderful opportunity to be employed as a writing mentor for those freshmen students who struggle with academic writing. I find my mentoring experiences to be some of the most rewarding moments in my college career. I like to view my mentees as fellow peers who have smart and interesting things to write (which they do). I believe my role as the mentor is to help them realize this so it becomes easier for them to write those smart and interesting things. However, I do address grammar and mechanics when necessary. I do not believe that lessons outside of the context of the student's writing is beneficial, and often only builds resentment in an already struggling writer. I take my mentoring methods very seriously and am constantly re-evaluating them.
