Over the past week or so I have came across some issues in freshmen seminar with another mentor. There are four of us in one class and we all had different views about a certain subject. As adults, the four of us sat down and put everything out on the table to be discussed. Overall, we came to the conclusion that we should of handled things better and in a different way. We came to the understanding that we all do things wrong sometimes and need to be told about those times and work together as a team to fix the problem. I believe that our meeting was very successful and now we all have a better understanding of how each of us can bring something different to the freshmen as mentors. Also, it is always better to work as a team rather then push people aside and forget that we should be working together. Mentors stick together! Instead of teaching the freshmen to work together, we should have focused on trying that for ourselves.
