What type of mentoring did you receive (see above)? What did you like/dislike about the mentoring you received?
    In Italy only when you have been hired with permanent contract you are helped by a tutor.
    So I didn't have a mentor, but I think it is quite common that we usually find some experienced teachers on whom we can rely on.]]>     2017-06-20 14:19:47 UTC https://padlet.com/danvir/mentoringinschools/wish/176990467     What advice would you give to someone who is starting work as a mentor in School? danvir https://padlet.com/danvir/mentoringinschools/wish/176990990 2017-06-20 14:23:31 UTC https://padlet.com/danvir/mentoringinschools/wish/176990990 What would you recommend to do in a first mentoring session with your mentee? danvir https://padlet.com/danvir/mentoringinschools/wish/176991091 2017-06-20 14:24:14 UTC https://padlet.com/danvir/mentoringinschools/wish/176991091
