    Addressing personal challenges faced by mentees in their academic journey through the mentoring program at Universidad de Córdoba

    This report presents my internship experience in the Mentoring Program at the Universidad de Córdoba, designed to facilitate the academic and social integration of transitioning students. This program supports the entry and permanence of students from the first to fifth semester whose academic needs are identified in English grammar and communication skills. Thirteen first-semester learners showed a lack in the areas of grammar, conversation, and listening during their first semester. These gaps stifled their growth, inhibiting their active class participation coupled with the presence of competitiveness, avoidance of routine behaviors, and low-status comparison among the mentored students and their classmates, leading to negative feelings toward peers and themselves, affecting their academic process as well. This frustration manifested in some mentees by imposing self-expectations and academic overload to reach the same communicative level as their benchmarked classmates, exacerbating personal issues that further impeded their academic progress during mentoring sessions. To address these challenges, the methodologies and strategies implemented included Motivational Strategies, Consideration of Learning Styles, and an Effective Feedback Approach. The combination of these techniques created a collaborative and engaging environment, allowing mentees to effectively address learning barriers while working towards a common academic goal with their mentor, which granted largely positive outcomes during the process. This environment fostered open communication channels for constructive feedback, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the mentorship.

    (Universidad de Córdoba, 2024-01-19) Manjarrés Martínez, Saray; Morales Flórez, Cristina Isabel; Novoa Padilla, Juan Pablo; Aguas Castillo, Pedro Pablo
    The importance of developing leadership skills, both adaptive and leadership, in order to guide quality education and stimulate students towards exceptional performance. This paper focuses on adaptive leadership, and to achieve great achievements, it is essential to conduct leadership in academia, specifically as adaptive leaders. In this personal leadership statement, we reflected on various concepts and perceptions of what it means to be a good leader, as well as assumptions, empowerment, and implications for the future. The plan is to incorporate student participation in adaptive leadership, considering strategies and empowerment in structured programs, inclusive decision making and an innovative approach to foreign language education, ensuring practical and impactful implementation in schools.
