Every mentor at HEYA starts with a strong resume, but a brilliant resume has never been enough for us. We search the world for people who've truly mastered their craft: scientists who still get excited about a new discovery, entrepreneurs who've built something from nothing, professionals who've spent decades in their field and still light up when they talk about it.

Then we ask the harder question: can this person sit across from a curious child and help them fall in love with learning? Only the mentors who pass both tests, real accomplishment and real ability to inspire, ever join our network.
