By acting as mentors to the students, the CSUF Debate team coaches and members help to guide and teach the high-risk students vital skills in the art of debate and discourse. The results of this successful program indicate that students are engaged and excited about their learning, and are more committed to staying in school. In Their Own Words: Mentors Speak From the Heart about Their Mentoring Experiences
There are many examples of successful student-to-student, as well as adult-to-student mentoring programs today. Mentoring can take place between college and high school students, high school and middle school students, middle to elementary school students, or upper elementary to lower elementary school students. Students of the same age and peer group can also mentor each other.
