Answer:

Mentor

Explanation:

"Mentor" is the word that defines an experienced individual who guides and gives advice to another person. This word comes from an episode of Greek Mythology that involved the hero Odysseus and his son Telemachus in the "Odyssey".

Originally, "Mentor" was the name of an elder friend of Odysseus. When the hero left for the Trojan War, he gave Mentor the responsibility of caring for his son, Telemaco.

When Athena visited Telemachus, she disguised herself as the elder, to remain hidden from the people of Ithaca. During this time she guided Telemachus, teaching her values, willpower and courage.
