Mentoring

I'm pretty nervous about mentoring a 6th grader, mainly because I don't like being around kids. However, they are 12-13 so it won't be so bad, at least I hope. I am hoping that this will help my transition to college, as I have learned that the best way to learn something is to teach it. So hopefully through mentoring both the student and I can learn something.

Expectation wise, I am hoping for a student who loves music, as that way we have something in common and I can give him some good music, depending on what he likes of course (none of the metal stuff though, I don't want the parent to call complaining about that, which is pretty lame). Actually thinking about it, maybe me telling him about some good music, such as Explosions in the Sky and Jesu, may help him in his transition, as it did help me in tough times.
