[Noa's] grand vision for what education could be motivates the rest of us to look beyond our current reality and context when it might be tempting (and comfortable) to rest where we are. Her stubborn commitment to students reminds us why we are here, doing what we are doing. And, to borrow from Van Morrison, her unique combination of wit and purpose lifts us up, turns us around and always places us down on higher ground.

When The MEHRIT Centre decided to add a mentoring option to our service offerings, we partnered with the amazing team of The MENTOREE to have them create online modules that would be included in a course our new mentors would complete. The content they created for TMC showcased their expertise in theory, practice, and lived experience of mentoring and included models, approaches, and many tools. The content and resources they developed/shared added dimension to our team's learning and gave us lots to reflect on and respond to as we worked towards our own version of a mentoring model for our work. The MENTOREE met tight turnaround timelines and throughout the partnering always went out of their way to connect, seek input, and meet the goals that we set out to achieve.

The What's in a Name BOB was offered to my students with other research topic options. I know the power of student choice, but I was struggling to find more topics that would be meaningful to recent immigrants, some with minimal education...I was grateful that Noa suggested W.I.N. and something unrelated to their migration journey.

The What's in a Name BOB was offered to my students with other research topic options. I know the power of student choice, but I was struggling to find more topics that would be meaningful to recent immigrants, some with minimal education...I was grateful that Noa suggested W.I.N. and something unrelated to their migration journey. I was blown away by how many students chose this BOB even though it would've been less work to do another topic. I think my student Uri said it the best, "I care about my life. When you ask us to report on that, we will do it with a smile on our face." I'm so happy that he learned enough English to express himself this way. Many of my students did this year. The idea of BOBs helped tremendously with that!
