My Personal Mentor - Personal Development Plan

My personal mentor is my mum. She is a good mentor because she is encouraging, patient, helpful, kind and always helps me out whenever she can.

The benefits she would bring to me would be:
  • Constructive criticism and feedback on my work.
  • Helpful advice and encouragement.
  • Would help me achieve my goals.
  • Assist me in developing my independence.
Most importantly, she would always be there for me.
