Mentoring Essentials for Student Learning

As new teachers enter the teaching profession, it is mandated that they have a trained mentor. But what does the research say about peer coaching and mentoring? The equation is simple: staff development + practice + feedback + job embedded coaching/mentoring = real and lasting results as teachers aim for excellence in their professional practice. Theory for pre-service or in-service training alone does not produce lasting results. Join us for this one-day workshop to learn more about the mentor’s role in new teacher induction and the foundational skills of effective peer coaching.

Participants will gather the tools to:

• Assist a colleague with formative assessment of their professional practice
• Reflect on the needs of beginning teachers Create a vision for quality instruction and professional practice
• Build a trusting relationship for fostering learning Develop facilitative language and practice collaborative interactions
• Practice listening deeply and foster a disposition of curiosity in the mentee
• Practice reflection in the 10 teaching standards
• Effectively coach the mentee in the EE process
