+# Mentoring VS-Coders as an Emacsian (or How to show not tell people about the wonders of Emacs)

+
+Join me as I share some anecdotes and approaches for mentoring other
+developers who use tools different from mine; all in service of
+furthering a shared understanding, sharpening my own toolkit, and
+hopefully helping others grow their capabilities.
+
+Most everyone I mentor has chosen VS Code as their editor; yet I don’t
+use VS Code. Our pairing and mentoring sessions are about me being
+curious about their habits and modes of operation. I use my journeyman
+knowledge of what Emacs can do to help these VS Coders navigate
+pathways towards sharpening their skills. I also learn a few editor
+tricks from them.
+
+I’ll talk about remote pairing sessions, one-on-one sessions, and
+larger show-and-tell efforts; each with the purpose of revealing
+potentially different approaches. The idea being that asking questions
+and showing alternate approaches can begin to illuminate previously
+unknown pathways.
+
+The underlying goal is to ignite in folks a desire to improve their
+understanding and usage of their preferred tools; and show
+alternatives that might peek further interest in learning and
+exploration.
