Hi I just got accepted, what is my first lesson? I am a finder.

Lesson 1~ Starting Up

Whether a Finder or a Mentor, your start is key to how the rest of the conversation will go!

If you are Mentoring someone, properly introduce yourself. Be very sure to be kind! You want your New Scratcher to get a good first impression. If you are Finding someone, and you've found them, politely tell them how they seem fairly new to Scratch, and that we will help them if they'd like! If you are cold or rigid, why would they want help from you?

Here are some basic moods of New Scratchers~

Kind

Easy as pie, here. Simply greet them and 1) Play with their kindness, and 2) Be humorous.

Stubborn
First of all, introduce yourself. Say that they respond with something like, “I don't need a Mentor!” or, “Well, I don't need much help.”

The best response would be, “Oh, well, okay! If you would like one in the future, just take a look here~ (Link to Main Thread)! We can really help. ” or “Well, I'll see what I can do for you. ”

You have to 1) Act like you didn't realize their stubborn statement and 2) Offer your services anyway!

Rude
First of all, introduce yourself. Say that they respond with something like, “I don't need a Mentor!” or, “Okay, so when are we going to do something!?”

The best response would be, “Oh, well, okay! If you would like one in the future, just take a look here~ (Link to Main Thread)! We can really help. ” or “We will start up shortly. ”

You have to 1) Act like you didn't realize their rude statement and 2) Don't force anything! If you say, “Come on! join!” they might be offended, and that would seal the chances of them joining!

As you can see, New Scratchers can have a variety of emotions. After all, they are new! So, your assignment is to respond to these 3 situations below, and tell me which situation is which New Scratcher emotion- (“A”s are for Finders; “B”s for Mentors!)

1. Tell me your greeting

2A. Reply~ “i don't need a menttor! im rlly good at scratch alredy” What type, and what is your response?

2B. Reply~ “So what am I doing first? ” What type, and what is your response?

4A. Reply~ “it seems like you guys dont do much. if you were bettr, maybe.” What type, and what is your response?

4B. Reply~ “I'm already really good but this might make me better. I hope I'm not wasting my time”

This is the kind type. I would say: Great! Go here https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/110704/?page=1 to apply for a mentor! They will help you with whatever you need help with!

4A. Reply~ “it seems like you guys dont do much. if you were bettr, maybe.” What type, and what is your response?

Hi CrazyGoldfish3,
On my profile, you gave me my username and password, so I copied them into a word document and deleted your comment. But, when I copied them into the document, it changed them. Could I please have them again?
Thanks,

Wow! That was really good… I love the constant links and how you use their mood types to your advantage. Really good first assignment.

Thanks! Let me know when I should do the next lesson!

Oh, okay. Quick Question, what does your grade average have to be to become a mentor?

If we need Mentors, you need to have a 97% or above, but mainly, you just have to pass the course to become Mentor.
