Before working activities with parents, partners, and sometimes even with students, I have discussions of principle and organizing with mentees. If so, I'm a partner, a second or a director, depending on the situation, on those activities. I always assure them of my support in any problem and I have them unconditionally.

I did not have a mentor. The head of the methodical committee somehow fulfilled this role of guidance. The study in the school, the individual study and the discussions with the older colleagues regulated didactic activity. Ten years ago I first heard mentoring in private organizations and I dared to be at some point in the position to introduce this concept into education as well. After 3 years it was introduced, but only scriptically. ]]> 2017-06-20 20:43:39 UTC https://padlet.com/fpreotescu/qi6t83jp66a6/wish/177027215 Module 1: The role of the mentor1.1 Mentoring – an introduction fpreotescu https://padlet.com/fpreotescu/qi6t83jp66a6/wish/177027707 I think I am an  Agent of change - Becouse I like to create collaborative school environment where mentee can feel safe and supported across the school.

 The mentor is a positive person, a very truly led, a communicator, and above all someone who knows how to listen, wait and help who is at the beginning of a journey by transferring their knowledge and experience in the respect of each one's culiarities.

 He has to be. Being a mentor is a vocation and a choice.

When you first meet your mentee, try to find a good place at school when you can be relaxed and take the time to get to know each other. Welcome him/her with some coffee/ tea/pastries and show your interest not only for his/her professional experience but also for his/her whole personality. You do... more

 I agree with you. In addition, there are personality tests that indicate compatibility between two people. Maybe they would be welcome in mentoring.

A good mentor is not trying to transform the new collegue and make a copy of himself. You have to share your experience and help the mentee to find his way to teaching performance. Create a new relation, based on sincerity, trust, professionalism.

That's right. We don't have to be narcissists. Remember: we are like all, we are like some, we are like no one else. hide

You're right Vitor. Nobody makes perfect everything from the beginning. The mistake is part of learning. hide

The mentor and the mentee are two professionals in different moments of their career. It is almost impossible to have the same professional level. The mentor is a person preoccupied with his professional development, so he certainly knows and does more than a beginner.

    It is clear that the mentoring and mentoring is a special one. That's why it puts a lot of trouble. But the question is: how close can be the relationship between the two, given that it is, however, a professional relationship. Often I have the impression, from my colleagues' positions, that the mentoring relationship is confused with that of friendship. I do not think this too close approach is beneficial to the professional mentoring relationship. The mentor is, however, formal and informal. Mentoring takes place within the educational unit, not outside. For me it's a reflection theme. ]]> 2017-06-20 21:31:13 UTC https://padlet.com/fpreotescu/qi6t83jp66a6/wish/177031022 My Profile fpreotescu https://padlet.com/fpreotescu/qi6t83jp66a6/wish/177034625
