Volunteering is not just about offering your time; it is also about what you hope to gain from the experience. For me, it was certainly about giving back and acquiring new skills that could be applied to other aspects of my life.
Emily Ho, alumni mentor
I learned and gained a lot from the mentoring programme. That's why whenever I am able, I always cherish the occasions when I can provide advice to my fellow law students about effective study habits, exam tactics, or insights about life in general.
Jasmin Chan, alumni mentor
Remember when you were studying and felt the weight of the world on you in terms of questions, coursework learning curves, and adjusting to a new life? This is the perfect chance to give back and help bridge the gap that only someone who has been there can help. Mentoring is more than what it appears at face value. It is not just a growth opportunity for the mentee, but also for the mentor. 1 hour a month is all it takes to give back.
