A call for new mentorship threads mentors

04/26/2007 06:45:12 PM · #1

Hello all, the suggestion was made in this thread. that it would be cool to get some new mentorship threads going, as the old ones are a bit crusty, and have missing images throughout most of them.

I would like to see this happen, and see as many people sign up to teach as is possible.

Ok, put me down.

...no, that's not what I meant. I mean I'll do one. Photoshop (not the verb) would be good for me to teach, I suppose.

I still would like to see a basic Teacher/Student mentorship deal going on. Basically a pool of Mentors, a pool of students and they just get matched up. Not quite sure how one would decide what qualifies as a mentor (number of ribbons? average score? overall quality of images?) but it would be great to see a mentor take a lower than average scoring student and guide them towards achieving higher scores.

I dont think I qualify as mentor material, but I would be more than willing to help someone who asked me for advice.

I'll happily and actively contribute to any PS Elements thread...but not quite up to being the only "mentor".

I think it's great that you're trying to revitalize these!

I thought Doc already knew how to use Photoshop?

Thanks for the willingness Hanneke, I know I couldn't necessarily do this as a teacher either, for one I'm not very good at teaching (IMO), and I can't commit time in the evenings when most people would probably be on.
