YMWREA Joanne Wittlin Mentor for the Day Program Reception

Student Comments:

“It's a terrific extracurricular experience. It provided a very valuable face to face opportunity with the real business world. My mentor was very accommodating and knowledgeable. Being allowed to sit in on his sessions with clients and colleagues during the day, I was able to acquire a better sense of the trade. I am very grateful and wish there are more such opportunities on the way.”

“The experience of spending the day with my mentor really helped to deepen my understanding of the real estate business and community. In just one day, I was able to witness all the concepts, theories, and current events we've discussed in our classes come to life. Likewise, I was able to hear the insights and experiences of a seasoned and successful professional which made me realize how much more there is to learn beyond what the scope of a classroom can offer. As such, seeing how everything comes together in the business world and the continuous improvement, learning process, and progress required to succeed in this industry really helped to strengthen my interest in and passion for real estate.”
