<p>Mentors basically hover around the room during the event and try to find
people who are stuck and then they help them get un-stuck. Many students
are shy to ask, so it is important to hover around and offer help.

<p data-i18n="mentoring-intro-part1">
So an organizer has asked you to mentor at a NodeSchool event, but you're a bit unsure what you're getting into or if can do it? No worries :)
</p>
<p data-i18n="mentoring-intro-part2">
First of all, if you have been asked about mentoring, you probably have some time of experience in JS and node. Students will likely ask questions you have had yourself back then.
</p>
<p data-i18n="mentoring-intro-part3">
Second, it is totally okay to not know the solution to all questions. Besides raw JS knowledge, the students can learn something else from you: how to figure out what you do not know.

<li data-i18n="mentoring-list-expected-1">Show learners that coding is nothing to be afraid of, but rather a lot of fun!</li>
<li data-i18n="mentoring-list-expected-2">Keep up a friendly and optimistic environment.</li>
