Abstract

This paper examines a one-on-one mentoring session with a colleague at a Japanese university as part of the final assignment for the 4th course on “Mentoring in Advising” offered by RILAE. The session elaborates on various aspects of Stephen’s professional and personal life. The primary purpose of this session was to help the mentee experience some positive emotions (Ackerman, 2018). Two conversation extracts in the advising session were analysed, and the author’s self-reflection on conducting this session has been written at the end. This paper may benefit new advisors, mentors or anyone seeking to learn more about how reflection can lead to experiencing positive emotions.
