The Full Story
About Acharya Mentoring
In Eastern Asian and Hindu cultures, Acharya means someone who is a learned person or influential mentor. The type of work Acharya Mentoring does is exactly as the name suggests, to influence and inspire people, unlocking their potential and working through those barriers to become more productive with their time, increasing their well-being. Acharya Mentoring was created to enable those who have a desire to reach success, however that may look to them, through the use of specific strategies, developed using signature techniques. Acharya Mentoring's main aim is to provide you with the knowledge you will need to push you through those barriers that are keeping you from reaching your success. Many techniques have been developed over the years which have proven to be very successful and continue to be. Work with us and transform your mindset, develop new knowledge, build on existing skills, and create a life you want to live.
Our Mission
Acharya Mentoring's mission is to empower and guide university students with diagnosed mental health conditions or Autism in the UK to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. We are committed to providing personalised and comprehensive support, enabling our mentees to achieve their full potential and succeed in their higher education journey. Our mission encompasses promoting academic success, fostering personal growth, enhancing overall well-being, and bridging the gap in support services for individuals facing these unique challenges. We strive to make a positive and lasting impact on the lives of our mentees, empowering them to overcome obstacles, embrace their strengths, and succeed in their academic and personal goals.
Many of life's failures are people who did not realise how close they were to success when they gave up.
