Coaching and Mentoring Program 2018


Outline for a Teacher Mentoring Program

Overview:
Mission: The mission of this mentoring program is to create a supportive and
collaborative environment for all teachers.

Goals: The goal of the program is to provide support for new teachers. It will also
allow for new and veteran teachers to support one another and reflect on their
practices.

Mentors:
Qualifications: A mentor in this program must be an experienced teacher
who has shown mastery of their practice. “A mentor needs to offer
criticism and critiques in positive and productive ways” (The National
Foundation for the Improvement of Education, p. 7, 1999.) Not only does a
mentor need to be an expert teacher, they need to mentor in a manner
that is positive and helpful to their mentees. They also need to
communicate and relate to their mentee. Lastly, mentors need to be open
to new ideas and reflection on their own practice.

Job Description: A mentor teacher will be expected to guide their mentee


throughout the year. They will
help to develop lesson plans, give feedback and open their own
classroom for observation.

Program Expectations and Requirements: A mentor is expected to


schedule meeting times and observation days. They are not evaluating
their mentee and are expected to be open to discussions and new ideas.
Mentors will give advice in positive ways. Mentors will also log their
meeting dates and discussions. They will plan for the next meetings and
set goals for the mentee.

Commitment Expectations:

Time/Energy: Both the mentor and the mentee will be expected to


dedicate a minimum of one hour a week to the program. With this time
they can meet, plan and reflect. They will be expected to implement their
new learnings within their classroom.

Flexibility/ Frequency: Mentors and Mentees will meet once a week. They will both
determine a time
and day that will work for them. If a meeting needs to be canceled, it will
be rescheduled in a timely
fashion.

Benefits and Rewards of Participation:


“Assigning experienced teachers to guide and support novice teachers
provides valuable professional
development for both new and veteran teachers” (Holloway, 2001, p. 1.)
The first benefit to a mentor program is the support that new teachers
receive. The support not only is beneficial to the new teacher but allows
for reflection of the mentor teacher as well. Not only does mentoring
provide support but it also helps to create a positive relationship and
school environment. The teachers can work collaboratively and in turn
teachers are more likely to stay in their school and profession.

Program Policies:
Both the mentor and the mentee will be expected to openly work with one
another and positively give and receive critiques. They will be expected to
be open minded and try new strategies within their classroom. Not only
will they be open minded but they must reflect on their classroom
practices.
