Mentorship and Life Skills Support

While academic skills are important and can be gained through college education, life skills are often not taught in the classroom. That’s why Kwah Dao provides intensive, one-on-one mentoring for both prospective scholarship students and those already receiving support.

Mentorship is led by two of our graduates—Ek, a licensed lawyer with a degree in Law, and Nuan, a Business Chinese graduate. Both mentors have overcome significant challenges from childhood through adulthood, making them uniquely equipped to guide others.

Our mentoring program helps students develop effective study habits, understand the college application process, and build leadership skills. It also covers essential life skills such as budgeting, managing personal finances, and navigating bureaucratic systems—skills that are crucial for long-term success.
