Re: Mentors: What's something you wish you knew going in?
Don't make it about yourself. Especially if you are an alumni turning into a mentor, put your ego at the door and put everything into helping your students grow both as FIRSTers and as people.
And just because you are a mentor doesn't mean you can't keep learning. None of us know everything. Keep learning so you can more effectively teach your students.
