Mentoring

At Université Paris Cité, numerous support services are available to students in need of guidance and assistance. Among them, mentoring, a peer support programme that serves both mentors and mentees.

Mentoring offers two types of support: pedagogical and moral. The mentors provide sessions of varying length depending on the needs, during which they help the student to understand a point, an exercise, a correction, to assimilate the methodology, to practice a presentation, an interview… The system also benefits those who give their knowledge, for some it proves to be a first pedagogical experience, an opportunity to meet and share. It is the chance to open to up to new perspectives;  a student accompanying another offers a different point of view from that of the teacher.

For international students

For up to one semester, students can become a mentor to a foreign exchange student. Their missions are :

  • to explain how the university works
  • to provide learning and logistical support
  • to communicate and guide various cultural events on and off campus
