I'm good at explaining things, and being understanding with people, I have been bullied on Scratch twice, and think that I responded to many rude comments well. Already helped a few people on scratch, such as Exotic2. Knows several other programming languages.

Why I want to be in the scratch mentoring committee?
I've never done anything I felt was very helpful to many people, and feel that I could give a lot of advice to many people if I did this.

What I can contribute to the Scratch Mentoring Committee?
I'm very good with making projects that deal with lots of information at once, which is good for cloud projects, and am able to think a project through before starting. I am good at organizing things and being efficient, which may be helpful in mentoring new scratchers.

How do my credentials show my expertise?
Umm… they probably do somehow…

Scratch Helper Mentoring Application Thread

The Scratch Mentoring Committee is dedicated to helping Scratchers. We help Scratchers by teaching them coding and tricks to navigating the Scratch Website. We show them where many tools and resources are available for them to use. We try to do 1 on 1 comprehensive instruction for coding and we try our best to answer any question tossed our way.

The Scratch Mentoring Committee is sponsored by the Scratch Helpers, the Scratch Mentors, the Scratch Welcoming Committee, and even some ST Members.

“Sounds like a great idea” scmb1*

“I think it is great that Scratchers help Scratchers - without the help being coordinated by the Scratch Team. This tells us a lot about what kind of community Scratch is, and this is what makes us special.” LiFayTheGoblin*

I am committed to helping all sorts of scratchers alike! I've worked a lot in the welcoming committee and I've helped all sorts of scratchers with my shop. I give many New Scratchers signatures and I'd like a chance to teach my knowledge to newer scratchers

What I can contribute to the Scratch Mentoring Committee?

I can contribute a new signature and a banner for the Scratch Mentoring Committee. I feel like I would be a helpful addition to the team. I am willing to teach anyone about signatures and banners!

My shop is one of the largest banner-producing shops on scratch! Many of our customers are satisfied with the work we produce and it shows to my ability and skill with signatures

Note that it is not required to specify to a certain point. Please make sure that your responses are better then mine . Good Luck!
