Abstract

Peer mentoring is a process where an individual with more experience or knowledge in a particular area guides, advises, and supports another individual who is of a similar age or status in that area. The mentor provides guidance, encouragement, and feedback to the mentee, with the aim of helping them develop the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in their personal or professional lives. In peer mentoring, both the mentor and mentee benefit from the relationship. The mentor gains a sense of satisfaction from helping someone else and reinforcing their own knowledge, while the mentee benefits from the mentor's experience and insights. Peer mentoring can occur in a variety of settings, including schools, workplaces, and community organizations. It is often used to support individuals who are new to a particular field, struggling with a particular challenge, or seeking to improve their performance in a particular area.
