Abstract:
Mentorship is an essential practice that helps shape educators at each stage of our careers. Effective mentoring establishes the kind of trusting relationships necessary for us to reflect on our practice, seek collegial advice, and take risks in the classroom. Not only does the continued partnership between a mentor and mentee have a strong impact on student learning, it increases a teacher’s self-worth and pride in their work. These two traits provide educators with the resilience needed to get us through difficult times and last us across the span of our careers.
