(Universidad de Córdoba, 2024-01-22) Padilla Romero, José Daniel; Vega Calao, Yina Margarita
This paper focuses on reporting the process of “Fostering Students Communicative Skills and Self-confidence Through Emotional Support in the Mentoring Program” at Universidad de Córdoba in Montería. This process was conducted with 10 students attending their first semester in Communication I and Grammar I courses, with the goal of helping them accomplish their desired results and boosting their confidence. Having very insightful and holistic sessions each time was key in order to help them to reinforce the content learned in their subjects. In this specific internship, there are a lot of professionals providing the guidance and training that mentors need along the process to fully equip them so that they can be effective role models and provide the best experience for their mentees. This is a student-centered approach where the mentees are the main focus of the program and all the other participants adapt to their needs, but the mentees have also to adapt to the strategies proposed in order to fulfill the expected outcomes. The up-learning and collaborative spaces are pertinent to carry out successfully the mentoring program.
