Mentoring -- guiding, coaching and sustaining beginning teachers

Description

We believe that mentors are very important for the professional development of beginning teachers and that mentors should be effective questioners and active listeners. The old traditional form of mentoring was for a mentor to be an advice giver and a problem solver and now we look upon mentoring as more of listening and questioning to help the beginning teacher then who grow more and think more about how to help students learn.
