I begin by identifying individual goals, recognizing that every mentee brings unique aspirations, strengths, and challenges. This understanding allows me to tailor guidance that is both meaningful and professionally relevant. I aim to create an inquiry-driven learning environment where questions are valued as much as answers. I believe that intellectual curiosity, when paired with thoughtful challenge, promotes growth. I encourage mentees to take ownership of their work, cultivating accountability and confidence in their abilities. Regular meetings serve as touchpoints for reflection, feedback, and problem-solving. These conversations are opportunities to celebrate progress, address obstacles, and refine goals. I see mentoring as a dynamic, evolving relationship – one in which both mentor and mentee are engaged in ongoing learning. Ultimately, my role as a mentor is to empower mentees to develop skills and confidence that will help them be successful in their chosen fields. mentor_handbook_and_faqs: '1' name_of_other_faculty_collaborator_if_applicable_: '' number_of_assistants_needed_faculty_postdoc_max_6_graduate_stude: '3' other_faculty_collaborator_s_preferred_pronouns: '' overall_research_project_description: 'The goal of this project is to track how the pronunciation of the students in our Spanish courses develops over the course of their studies, and what factors play a role in their development.
