Description

To celebrate 10 years of the English with Kirsty podcast, I’m creating a 10-part series to celebrate 10 different forms that learning can take.Part seven of the series is about learning through mentoring.I’m not an expert on this topic, but I’ve read about many official or unofficial programmes which match mentors and mentees to promote growth and learning. I also knew that Women in Localization has a mentoring programme, so I decided to try and find out more about it and discover what people have learned through the experience of being a mentor or a mentee.Tamara Tirjak and Teresa Toronjo are my guests in this episode. Whilst they are currently working together as a mentor/mentee, they both have experience of both roles.We talked about:• Tamara and Theresa’s stories, including their links to the topic of mentoring• The Women in Localization mentoring programme and how it works• The difference between mentoring and coaching• What both of my guests have learned and enjoyed through their involvement in mentoring programmes• How lerning through mentoring has helped both of my guests, personally and professionally• Some of the myths around mentoring and how things are in real life• What makes a good mentor or a good mentee?You can find out more and access our links on the show notes page: https://www.englishwithkirsty.com/podcast/episode283If you are eligible and you’d like to sign up for the Women in Localization mentorship programme, you can find out more about it here: https://womeninlocalization.com/resources/mentorship-program/Thank you Tamara and Teresa for sharing your stories and insights with us and exploring this topic of learning through mentoring.Have you been a mentor or a mentee?
