One minute
for each “interview”
•
Both people MUST introduce themselves
and share
•
You MUST cover the basic “interview” info
Name
•
Grade
•
1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th year in Teen
Trendsetters
•
Something you are good at
•
Biggest challenge you have faced
•
Who has had the biggest influence in
your life and why?
Taking time to meet new
people and learn more
about them, is key to
feeling comfortable and
having fun in new or
unfamiliar settings.
The more you practice, the
easier “interviews” get.
• Do you have siblings?
• Have you ever been a camp counselor?
• Do your friends ask you for advice?
A Mentor is…..
• A coach or guide
• Someone who gives advice
• A role model
• Someone you look up to
• Mentees will copy everything you do!
• The attitude mentors bring to the sessions will be
mimicked by the mentees. Enter each session with
excitement and a “can do” attitude.
• Model Positive Behaviors - Phrases regularly used with
your friends, and even on TV and radio, may not be
appropriate for elementary school students to mimic –
“screwed up, freakin’, shut up” are not appropriate.
• Creating a Safe Learning
Environment
• Sharing & Building Trust
• Following Policies &
Procedures
• Confidentiality
Think about classrooms that provided
safe learning environments, what did
that feel like?
There are two types of safety to
consider in a teaching or mentoring
environment: Emotional Safety and
Physical Safety.
• Create an environment where it is ok to
make mistakes and ask questions.
• Everyone hits a rough patch now and
then.
• Be Encouraging. Use phrases like, “Great Job,
That’s right, Awesome, We’ll work together, OK
let’s try again”
• No one trusts someone new right away. It takes time to
build trust.
• Start with something you have in common. We all
have been in elementary school so that is a good place
to start sharing. Share – favorites, likes and dislikes,
hobbies, dreams and aspirations
• Be careful about where and with whom you share information
about your mentee.
• DO NOT Share – phone number, high school drama, or anything you
feel uncomfortable sharing
For the safety of both mentors and
mentees- Teen Trendsetters™ mandates
that you stay in a location supervised by
an adult and that mentoring sessions
take place ONLY at the designated site.
Guidelines for Mentor Sessions
• Be There, Be On Time & Be Prepared!
• Never Leave the Designated Site!
• Stay in a Location with Adult Supervision!

Confidentiality ExceptionsIf a child shares something with you that will hurt the child
or hurt someone else, you MUST report it to the adult in
charge and follow the policies and procedures of your
district.
If you suspect or hear about abuse or neglect, you MUST
report it to the child’s teacher or your Teen Trendsetters™
program advisor.
The adult will then assist you in following the district
policies and procedures for reporting abuse.
Create a setting where
mentees feel physically
and emotionally safe.
Follow the guidelines and
have fun!

Who is a leader you admire?
What qualities make him or her a good
leader?
Which of these qualities do you
possess?
Which qualities do you need to
improve on?
Teen Trendsetters are future leaders.
Great
leaders
lead by
example.
Great
leaders
are
consistently
teachable.
Great
leaders
empower
others.
2014 2015 teen trendsetters training final draft rw hb
2014 2015 teen trendsetters training final draft rw hb
The Power
The power to personally impact someone else’s life.
The power to have multi-generational impact.
The power to change the world forever.
The Responsibility
The responsibility to make every contact a positive
experience.
The responsibility to make every contact count beyond
that hour.
The responsibility to make it happen.
Great leaders lead by
example, are teachable and
empower others.
By providing the opportunity
for others to step up to
leadership responsibilities,
you can accomplish great
things.

The Casting Process
The program advisor, with input from the elementary
contact, is responsible for making the match.
Many factors are considered in the process of making a
mentor/mentee match.
The Casting Director is your Program Advisor
The Casting Process
Try to make it work by respecting the
match you’ve been given.
What do I do if the match isn’t
working?
What does frustration look like in
struggling readers?
Reading is hard work. Sometimes I get tired when I read.

• Do you think about how to read when you are
reading?
• Probably not, you’ve been reading for a while
now, and you probably haven’t given much
thought to all of the different things your brain
is doing while you read.
• It is important to take time to think about what
makes a strong reader, and to reinforce those
habits with your mentee.
• Are strong readers smarter than struggling
readers?
• No, strong readers are not smarter than
struggling readers, they are just better
equipped with the tools to help them read
more efficiently.
• It is important to provide positive feedback to
your mentee, and encourage them to practice
using the tools they are equipped with.
