Mentor Courses

Mentor Courses presents activities and processes for exploring the roles and duties of mentors and practising the skills required to support learner teachers.

This practical resource book provides a collection of materials for use on mentor courses. The first part of the book discusses the principles underlying the activities and the training approach and looks at some procedures that can be used throughout mentor courses. The second part presents a wide range of in-session activities in an easy-to-use format. Each activity includes guidance on aims, materials and timings, as well as step-by-step procedures. The final part provides suggestions and materials for projects and assignments, including observation tasks and reading and writing tasks. Photocopiable resources for use with the activities are provided in a separate section at the back of the book.
