Peer Mentoring

ʻImi Naʻauao Peer Mentor Program

The Kapiʻolani Community College ʻImi Naʻauao STEM Peer Mentoring Program aims to nurture student growth, achievement, and professional development by employing and training student peer mentors to support students enrolled in STEM classes. Guided by the concept of ʻimi naʻauao, meaning to seek knowledge or education, the Peer Mentoring Program cultivates collaborative learning to support the growth of both mentors and mentees.

How should I prepare for a mentoring session?
  • Gather course materials and have textbooks, notes, assignment guidelines, the syllabus, and other relevant information at hand
  • Identify what you need help on: prepare specific questions and pinpoint exactly where you may have difficulties.
What do I do after the session is over?
  • You will need to complete an exit survey that you will receive through your UH email after your mentoring session. This survey will help us to refine and improve our services.
