Q) Why I want to be in the scratch mentoring committee?
A) I would like to be in the Scratch Welcoming Committee because it would be a fun job. I would also like to join the committee because I get to help Scratchers and make sure that they have an excellent start on Scratch. I love to help people and know that I have done a excellent good deed.

Q) What I can contribute to the Scratch Mentoring Committee?
A) I can contribute my Welcoming Committee project which may help new scratchers. I could also make some amazing tutorials (simple and complicated things) so that Scratchers can find things easier to do. Skillwise, I can contribute my helping skills. I have typing skills because I can type really fast on keyboards so when somebody asks me something, I can give them a quick and detailed reply.

Q) How do my credentials show my expertise?
A) They show my helping skills (e.g. helping in welcoming committee). They also show my energy to assist people and answer their Scratch questions. I have always been helpful and becoming a mentor can boost my helpfulness.

Why I want to be in the scratch mentoring committee?
So I can help other Scratchers! I am about a year old on Scratch and I know how it feels like to be totally helpless as a new Scratcher. Wish I knew this program was around then!

What I can contribute to the Scratch Mentoring Committee?
I'm very good at signatures and coding I can help New Scratchers who need help with code, and get signatures for older Scratchers. I also am fairly good at BBCode.

How do my credentials show my expertise?
I take requests for signatures and code when people need it. Through doing that, I have become really good at doing those things, but there's always room for improvement!

BUMP…

I love helping others and I love Scratch; combine them and you get Scratch Mentor!

What I can contribute to the Scratch Mentoring Committee?
I think I'd be a good addition to the team because I am part of lots of Collabs and Shops, and I remember being very confused about them when I was a New Scratcher, so I can help educate about those.

How do my credentials show my expertise?
I would really put a lot of effort into my teaching and make specific ‘lesson plans’ for each New Scratcher, ensuring that I'm not just a ‘Robotic Voice’ that says the same words to each person.

I feel like the cause is good, because when I started Scratch I had no idea that there was a group that wanted to help, and I think it is beneficial to the community.

What I can contribute to the Scratch Mentoring Committee?
I can find new students, and hopefully convince them to go into mentoring.

How do my credentials show my expertise?
I am somewhat of a Scratch noob myself, so I feel like knowing that, it will help me discover other Scratchers who want help.
