“The safe and secure online platform and ease of communication make the program unique and convenient for a busy professional, something not traditionally associated with mentoring or volunteering.”

"Having everything online made it possible for me to do my reading and writing tasks whenever I could squeeze them into my busy life. I also think the variety of units/articles is a strength of the program. There's bound to be something that interests every student and adult volunteer!"

"Thank you for the well-written material. It was interesting and entertaining to me—an adult—which was a nice surprise! It also gave me plenty of substance to write about, so I never had to struggle to come up with questions or topics for our conversations. One more thing: I appreciate that the site we were using is secure. That took away the worry that some adults might feel when communicating with a child. The platform is impressive!"

"I really like how many suggestions and guidelines were offered (key words, guiding questions, sample letter, etc.). It really made me feel confident that my letter was meeting the curriculum requirements."
