Listen to what your mentee has to say. This is the most important role a mentor can play.

I think this is the most important point as well. Mentorship is really about the mentee(and listening to them). I've met many ppl looking for mentors who have had very discouraging mentorships online b/c many "Twitter mentors" have no real interest in listening to their mentees but instead just shoutout what their ideals are.
