What some mentees have to say

Love Sparus Otudor

My mentor was quite detailed about my journey and knowledge gaps. He helped me with resources and links, followed up and explained the dark parts in my learning. He helped me through an interview process too.

Zainab Jimoh

I loved that my mentor was very thorough and patient with me. Moyin’s experience is vast and I feel honoured to have been mentored by her, because the experience showed in all of our interactions. We were able to achieve our goals for the mentorship program and scale me up and improve my previous skills and knowledge.
