Maina Victor Opio

Mentor in first-generation students and leadership

  • 🇰🇪 Kikuyu, Kiambu, Kenya
  • Kikuyu Learning Hub
  • Since 1979
  • English
For 47 years I've mentored people in first-generation students and leadership. Mostly it's coffee, honest feedback and a lot of listening. I keep a jar of spare pencils on my desk. It has been a good run and I'm grateful for all of it.

More about Maina

Some of my mentees now mentor others. That's how it's meant to work.
What gifts mean to Maina: I'd put gifts toward travel for in-person sessions with students.

    You helped me get my first first-generation students job in 1984. I still have your notes. Greetings from Munich.
