Relationship in University
CHAPTER THREE
RELATIONSHIPS IN THE TERTIARY INSTITUTIONS
Relationships are the bedrock of your life. Everything rises and falls with relationships. Your success or failure in the tertiary institution will be determined by the kind of relationships you are involved in when you are there. There are relationships that will plunge you into a mess and there are relationships that will push you into a massive success. In the tertiary institutions, people contract relationships that end up in glorious marriages while some others, live in regrets. Some people entered into some relationships that introduced them into cultism. A number of people will add to you while others will subtract from you.
RELATIONSHIPS YOU NEED
Academic Coach/Mentor
Mentorship is a personal developmental relationship in which a more experienced or more knowledgeable person helps to guide a less experienced or less knowledgeable person. The mentor may be older or younger in age, but certainly advanced in the area of expertise. It is a learning and development partnership between someone with vast experience and someone who wants to learn.
A mentor is a special kind of helper who works with others in a positive, constructive way so that both mentor and protégé have the potential to grow through the relationship.
