    mentoring question

    By eburcart | July 18, 2008

    I am wondering if anyone has advice on how to re-connect with a former student who I used to have a close mentoring relationship with. He is now 16 and not as interested in spending time with a former teacher, but I dont want to just let him be when I know that he is going through a lot now and making some really bad decisions. Is there anything I can do?
