"The highlight of my 2023 has been my greatest achievement, thanks to Nor Luyce. I’ve made new friends, discovered new environments, and become so active that I barely have any free time. I’m always eager to connect with new people and gain new knowledge. Attending Nor Luyce is immensely important to me because every group or individual meeting leaves me enriched with new insights. Nor Luyce is truly exceptional." said Silvi.
Nor Luyce program empowers not only mentees but also mentors. This is what mentors say: "Nor Luyce Mentoring Center is a dynamic and innovative NGO dedicated to fostering personal growth in teenagers. Each participant receives tailored support to meet their individual needs. At Nor Luyce, mentees begin a transformative journey with their mentors, during which they often overcome negative traits, gain professional direction, connect with influential figures, prepare for academic challenges, and receive essential psychological support. The center also prioritizes the professional development of its mentors, enhancing their analytical skills and expanding their perspectives."
In the last quarter, Nor Luyce Mentoring Center celebrated significant milestones in our mission to foster personal and professional growth among our mentees. We conducted 665 individual meetings totaling 1,330 hours, focusing on stabilizing self-esteem, managing emotions, and setting non-conflict goals. Additionally, we held 40 group meetings covering 80 hours, where mentees discussed mutual support, emotional expression, goal setting, and public speaking, with many giving their first-ever public presentations.
We prioritized skill development, offering an 8-day advanced computer course that equipped mentees with essential Microsoft Word and PowerPoint skills. Our talented mentees and mentors also showcased their creative abilities through beautiful handicrafts and paintings. Meetings enriched the mentees’ appreciation of national culture, health awareness, and clear career path definitions. They created and presented career guidelines to peers and staff, demonstrating significant progress.
The quarter was marked by exciting visits and collaborations, with nine informative and entertaining outings to universities, colleges, a zoo, and a cola factory. We also hosted famous guests and bloggers who inspired and motivated our mentees, establishing valuable industry connections. For mentors, comprehensive training sessions covered projective tests, manipulation, and criminal psychology studies, ensuring they are well-equipped to support their mentees. This quarter has been transformative for both mentees and mentors, showcasing the power of dedicated support and continuous learning.
