Technical Mentor with expertise in AI mentoring learners through interactive sessions at Udacity. Supporting global learners in understanding advanced AI topics and applications.
Responsibilities
Your responsibilities as a technical mentor will be divided into three major tasks.
1:1 video calls
Virtual Technical Deep-Dive Sessions
Group Q&A sessions
Provide personalized support by addressing learner questions related to course content and projects.
Prior to the call mentors are expected to review the students' previous project submission(s) - provided by the Mentor Success Team when available - and/or any specific areas of the Nanodegree content or project that the student has expressed confusion or difficulty with.
For concept deep-dives, mentors will come prepared with a slide presentation that reviews a Nanodegree concept in more detail, share different use-cases for the concept to broaden student perspectives and understanding, and hold a Q&A session with the learners.
For project walkthroughs, a mentor will come prepared with a slide presentation that outlines each element of the rubric to help learners understand expectations and typical problem areas they may encounter. This can include a mentor “grading” a sample submission to demonstrate what mentors are looking for when reviewing projects.
Host regular sessions (via Slack or video) to address learner queries related to projects and coursework. No prior preparation required.
