Mentoring

“Whosoever follows a path to seek knowledge, Allah will make a path to paradise easy for him” – [Muslim]

Being at one of the best academic institutions in the world is a blessing from Allah that requires us to be thankful and to make good use of this blessing – by excellence and hard work.

The ISoc mentoring scheme is here to help you fulfil your potential at LSE, by giving a ‘heads up’ on the road ahead of your next 3 years here. We help you do your best by providing the information and advice that you might otherwise not have had – and motivating you along the way too! Here’s a glimpse of what we offer:

1) Mentoring Sessions

Whether regular weekly sessions or whenever the mentee requests them, these sessions are given by experienced mentors, to help, guide and motivate the mentee throughout the year on their degree.

They are usually based on topics that the Mentee requests and therefore offer a level of flexibility.

2) Mentoring Events

Previous events include…

• Crash Course in IT – Doesn’t turn you into a computer geek but does what it says on the tin. Essential for every student wanting to survive LSE – where everything runs by e-mail and computer.
• How To Write Good Essays – Does what it says on the tin (de ja vu?)
• The Buzan Et. Al Method Of Study – So much to do, so little time! How do we become efficient and studious? What is the most effective way of studying? This event reveals all.

3) Mentoring Reminder E-mails

Whether they are motivational reminder emails or humorous ones, these are sent to all Mentors and Mentees to keep them going throughout the year. 

4) An Opportunity

To make new friends on your course from all years as well as the chance to gain advice and support, which will inshaAllah (God willing) help you have a stable and enjoyable year!
