For example, some student mentor pairings have notbeen ideal. Personality clash can be a problem for some students that are more sensitive than others. So, changes inmentors have been made mid program for a couple of students. These changes did work out much better in the endbut was still a challenge to face.In order to help with the stress that arises during the program, the new workshops are being developed that will teachthe students new methods for dealing with stress.
