Chemistry students that get involved with the student chapter during their first academic year are frequently selected to participate in Florida International University’s staple Learning Assistant Program due to the experiences acquired while working with the community in hands-on activities. Their journey continues when they are selected to teach introductory chemistry laboratories expanding their knowledge in chemistry. As laboratory instructors, undergraduate students become role models to peers and younger students. We will present their stories and their opinion on how the mentoring and feedback received has made them potential mentors for rising students. Through the student chapter, our members are able to share resources and skills that they acquired in the early stages of their undergraduate experiences including, but not limited to engagement with the student chapter.
