Example:
"At my previous school, I noticed that our students were struggling with reading comprehension. I initiated a reading mentorship program that paired older students with younger ones to read together for 30 minutes each day. I collaborated with teachers to develop a curriculum and trained the mentors. As a result, reading scores improved by 20% over the year, and both mentors and mentees reported increased confidence and enjoyment in reading."
