Information for Students

There's some great classes offered as part of the weekend of learning have a look at the Mainand Mentor Coaches page for the listed weekend of learning classes plus others offered by Mentor coaches around Second Life.

Information for Mentors interested in Coaching

We're aiming to get as many mentors as possible to teach their favourite things in second life, this could be building, scripting, wiki-ing, getting help in SL, texturing, sculpted prims, machinima, team building, land management, groups, appearance editing, event hosting, Question and Answer sessions... the list is endless whatever you feel confident in talking about and sharing with people come along and share it with the residents of SL!

Don't worry if you're teaching the same thing as another person, if they're at different times then it means more ppl will be able to come at different timezones.

Once you've decided on a class list it in 2 places for maximum exposure:

  • Second Life Events - Log into secondlife.com/events, pick a date from the calendar and click Add Event and fill in the details. To help the weekend add "WoL:" to the beginning of the title and this to the bottom of your event listing :
