What our current mentors and mentees have to say 

“It was a blessing to know Dr Gowtham as my mentor. He restored hope in me and encouraged me to works towards my dreams.”  
 - Muhammad Firdaus Abdul Jalil, Mentee #amPowered@ITE, ITE College East 

“I decided to become a mentor as I wanted to positively influence the youth of today. Despite my busy schedule, I wanted to give back. A transformative moment in my mentorship journey was when I went on a trip to a music jamming studio with three of my mentees. To me, mentoring is a two-way relationship, and they’ve taught me about grit, perseverance, and patience in life.”  
- Nur Syazwan Syamsuddin, Mentor #amPowered@ITE
