Qualifications and Requirements: Making a Difference as a Mentor
At Lexia Education Services, we seek passionate individuals who are ready to make a meaningful difference in the lives of young learners. To ensure the best possible support for these individuals, we have outlined the qualifications and requirements for potential mentors:

Necessary Qualifications, Skills, and Experience
We look for individuals who possess relevant qualifications, such as a degree in education, psychology, or a related field. Additionally, experience in mentoring, teaching, or working with young learners is highly valued. A background in alternative learning provision (ALP) is advantageous but not mandatory.
Empathy, Patience, and the Ability to Connect
Empathy and patience are crucial qualities that mentors must possess. The ability to connect with young learners on a personal level, and understand their unique challenges and experiences, is vital for building trust and establishing meaningful relationships. Mentors must be able to create a supportive and non-judgmental environment where learners feel valued and understood.


Interest or Background in Sports, Physical Exercise, Music, or Dance
Having a background or interest in sports, physical exercise, music, or dance is beneficial as these elements are incorporated into our mentoring process. Mentors who can leverage the therapeutic aspects of these activities find common ground with students, breaking down barriers and fostering engagement and connection.
By meeting these qualifications and embodying the necessary skills and qualities, mentors at Lexia Education Services have the opportunity to make a lasting impact on the lives of young learners. If you are passionate, empathetic, patient, and have a genuine interest in connecting with and empowering young individuals, we encourage you to join our team of dedicated mentors and embark on a fulfilling journey of mentorship and personal growth.
Training and Support: Empowering Mentors for Success
By providing comprehensive training, ongoing professional development, and a supportive community, Lexia Education Services ensures that our mentors are well-equipped, confident, and continually growing in their roles.
