Hi Martin! We are a pair of self-motivated, driven students who are building a platform which enables open-source collaborative development of notes/study material/cheatsheets (like GitHub or Kaggle for notes).

This idea came about as a result of problems we (and our friends) face, and genuinely believe that this would be a useful tool that will greatly enhance the educational outcomes of students everywhere.

We intend to build on an MEVN stack, and believe your experience in server-side backend development would greatly benefit our team and your interest in solving real world problems closely aligns with us. We would be grateful and excited to be under your mentorship!

Do reach out to us via the aforementioned contact methods and thank you for your time!

Hello Martin,

We are StuBid (Year 1 CS and IS students), also known as ‘Student Bidders’ who aims to innovate a one-stop mobile application (Similar to trading marketplace like Carousell) to allow students from all Singapore Universities to conveniently buy or sell unwanted items online through an anonymous bidding system.

The main theme of StuBid is ‘Anonymity’ which allows students to maintain their privacy and confidentiality, before/during the bidding process. Sellers can auction off their items to potential buyers, while buyers can submit their bid according to their preferred budget. When the final bid is accepted between the Seller and Buyer (Winning Bidder), the ‘Anonymity’ profile by both students will be released to each other (Contact details/information etc) where further transaction can take place.

Moreover, we realise that there is currently no online platform catered specifically for students in NUS or other universities to be able to buy/sell unwanted items. Therefore, StuBid not only serves as a marketplace for students, but also provide much needed convenience, assurance and freedom for students who wish to sell/buy items on an online platform.

We are highly motivated and hardworking individuals who have good interest in mobile development and other related applications. While we lack experience in software development, we are willing to put in our utmost effort to learn along the way. We wish to create a holistic and scalable application that can make a positive impact, as well as meeting the needs of our users. Our main goal is to learn something new, develop something cool, as well as having a fun, meaningful and memorable time together throughout the programme.

We strongly believe that your invaluable experience in Tiktok will help propel our project forward in the right direction by guiding us on best practices and building a great product! Aside from software development, we also look up to you as a mentor for possible career and industry advice in the future.

Lastly, feel free to contact us if our project resonates with you and we would be happy to schedule a call with you to discuss further. We are genuinely excited to make this project a reality and we hope that you will consider our team as we look forward to your mentorship and guidance!

Thank you and have a great day ahead!

Bransome and Anshumaan

Dear Mr Gao,

We are Team State, a team looking to tackle the increasingly detrimental problem of declining mental health, particularly among students. We are creating WellNUS, a web application that tackles this problem by matching students to a group of like-minded peers that will act as a peer support system and improve the accessibility of counselling by utilising volunteer counsellors on top of professional counsellors.

Our project’s core functionality stems from matching students to other students and counsellors favourably. This is especially important as the impact on the mental health of students will hinge on whether the person they are matched with is favourable. We believe your experiences with server-side development and TikTok will prove invaluable to us in developing a system that can perform this task effectively.

Thank you for taking your time from your busy schedule to become a Mentor for Orbital and we hope to work with and learn from you during this orbital journey.

Yours Sincerely,
Team State
