“I never felt alone during the early stages (in ASMU) when I was trying to figure out who I was as an Ambassador, and that was what made my first year so enjoyable. Being a mentee was one of the best parts of my ASMU (and SMU) experience.”
Chan Jia Fen
Mentee
“Mentorship puts you in touch with someone who's actually experienced what you are currently going through, which really helps you get started in terms of understanding the organisation. My mentor, Dawn, helped me with this and I wanted to pass it on to the next batch.”
Nigel Chua
Mentor
“My mentor, Yash, helped me visualize my goals and what I could do to achieve them. This really helped me to better understand my strengths and chart my own path, not only in ASMU but also through my SMU life. This inspired me to become a Mentor the next year too!”
Sasha Joseph
Mentee
“Really grateful and thankful that I have an inspiring mentor and friend, Minhui, who continually pushed me to grow and challenge myself. It was encouraging to have a senior to share their experience while believing in you and guiding you along the SMU journey.”

TRAINEE WORKSHOPS
Benefit from training sessions tailored to your needs and interests. Gain both hard and soft skills alongside a driven community of fellow Ambassadors.
"I liked the The Art of Storytelling workshop as we were taught how to weave in our personal stories in school. I liked talking about my favourite study spots, eateries and co-curricular activities as it got me excited instead of simply being informative. I quickly applied this into my following tours and saw that the mood was often livened up when I talked about what I was passionate about – getting to perform on stage with my acapella group, SMU VOIX and of course, 88 cents waffles every Tuesdays!"

Ambassador, 17th Batch
"While the introductory workshops for Junior Ambassadors were very eye-opening, my most memorable training has to be the Photoshop workshop conducted by our ASMU Alumnus, Justin. It was very enjoyable playing around with the tools and laughing at what my fellow Photoshop-newbie batchmates created. The quick tips and tricks also helped me out when working on Marketing collaterals for SMU Parents' Day."
