Intercultural Mentoring for Schools

“Intercultural Mentoring” is innovative in a relaxed way. It is professionally constructed and offers a clear framework as well as continuity. That is why it can be applied to concrete needs in a school or in a class. It is essential that it only takes place inside school and always in coordination with the teacher in charge. Reflection and documentation happen continuously. Success is unequivocal. The mentor as an example strengthens the student’s self-confidence, her or his biography shows the student what is possible, and the adult’s concrete attention motivates him or her to learn. Overall, the mentors’ work by no means has a selective effect – rather, it strengthens the entire class community.
