Our principles

Built around people, not transactions.

Simple principles that apply to everyone on MySeniorMentor.

Direct contact

You connect directly with the person — there is no agency in between.

Real people, real experience

Profiles show the skills, knowledge and experience people want to share. We review profiles before publication for completeness and our community guidelines — this is not a certification or guarantee of anyone’s skills.

You decide together

After making contact, you decide between yourselves whether and what you would like to arrange.

No transactions through MySeniorMentor

MySeniorMentor does not arrange activities or process payments between users.
