Oh you should. They are fun, and if you have a mentor it creates a nice banter.

I've had two, the first was very organized, very focused on grammar and paragraph structure. The second is very knowledgeable about the reception of the review by the audience. Both have helped me out a great deal.

I have a wonderful mentor who not only is helping me write reviews, but navigate the site and the various in and out of the community. It's been a great experience so far!

i kind of like that no one said they had one and it didn't help them at all.

Woo! Go mentor program.

I think whether or not it will help a particular person is 100% related to both the people involved. By the time I went into the mentor program as a student, I was already at Advanced Reviewer level as far as my writing was concerned, but I didn't want to get voted in because I don't like the vote in process. So I went through it to become an Advanced Reviewer. By that time I had been here so long and written so many reviews, there really wasn't much for the mentor program to offer me. But, I went through it anyway.

the mentoring program is great! I love it! But as far as helping me with my wrighting skills. well not really. But it has helped a lot with how to word things eroticly (something i have no clue on untill starting my reviews), and helped with my spelling and comma mistakes. Also not to mention the great friendships, and all the support.

I love my mentors. They are my friends. I have a mentor now, she tried to graduate me and i said NO plz NO not yet.. I love her help!
