The Mentor′s Guidebook cover

Be the best mentor for early career teachers

Mentors are critical to the success of new and aspiring teachers. In a time when so many teachers are leaving the profession within the first few years of their career, empowering mentorship can make a world of difference—not only for teacher retention, but instructional quality and positive student outcomes.

Written for any mentor who is new to the role or wants to reinforce or build upon their existing skills, The Mentor′s Guidebook walks you through the core concepts of being an inspiring mentor and guide. Inside, you′ll discover

  • Your personal Mentorship Modality
  • How to create an environment for effective mentorship and build and maintain your momentum
  • An exploration of various mentorship models known to be successful
  • The role that school leadership plays in your success
  • What to do when things do not go as planned

Help reclaim and reframe the narrative of what it means to be a teacher today. With effective mentorship strategies, you can make a difference in retaining and inspiring new teachers for years to come.

"Mentoring can be impactful IF both the mentor and mentee entering into the relationship with a learner′s mindset. The Mentor′s Guidebook helps accomplish that success with clear frameworks, real-world examples, and reflective exercises that will provide guidance for both experienced mentors and those new to the role."

-- Peter DeWitt

"The Mentor′s Guidebook not only provides incredibly practical tools for mentors, but also speaks to the heart of the mentorship relationship. Serving as a call to action, this book inspires leaders to foster a collaborative culture within which our schools flourish. Read this book and you will not only understand mentorship more deeply, you will also be able to take steps to support the teachers you work with. The Mentor′s Guidebook compels the reader to provide support to those around them and provides the structures schools and systems need to prepare a generation of teachers for the rewarding careers ahead of them. It should be on every principal and superintendent′s bookshelf. I deeply enjoyed reading this book and it will clearly impact my relationships for years to come."
