If you are a professional and want to ‘give back’ by passing on what you know, The Goa School is for you. See our line up of mentors.
What’s in it for a Mentor?
Give back. Share your resources to give others a leg up.
Pass on the baton. Take what you know and turn it into an interesting program.
Deliver your knowledge resources yourself. This way you can focus on quality, and you know that your efforts paid off.
Meet young Indians preparing to go out and change the world. Mentor them for a year after you deliver your program, if you wish.
Be inspired by Fellows with the potential to change the world, guiding them through their life choices.
Grow and be enriched by your mentoring experience, which will help you in other areas of your life. Meet other mentors from other parts of the world. Join our network.
Experience Goa. Or Zoom in for shorter conversations (We are offering Hybrid events because of Covid, where only those mentors who can travel to Goa will be in the room).
If this sounds right up your alley, please contact us ASAP.
