Academic mentoring is part of Engame Academy’s academic program for its Junior-year (11th grade of high school) students, to offer personalised support for their development throughout the academic year.
Academic mentoring focuses on supporting the main learning outcomes for the year, which is for students to make tangible progress in terms of their study orientation (finding their interest field) and profile building (adding academic and extracurricular activities to their CV for their university application). To ensure students make the most of the program for their development in these two areas, mentoring also provides guidance and advice in making decisions related to module selection and attending activities at Engame.
