About the book

"In their lectures and seminars, trainee teachers learn many theories, concepts and applications, but the make-or-break experience is in school, where trainees really discover how to teach and what their strengths and areas for development are. A mentor is the critical friend who makes that journey with the trainee and who adjusts targets and expectations to suit the individual trainee. This book aims to help mentors support trainees more effectively. It also allows mentors to demonstrate and to develop further the skills and expertise they draw on to support trainees." "The thirty-four scenarios that make up the book are based on real-life teacher-trainee issues. They are designed to stimulate analysis of those issues; to help the formulation of possible approaches; and to promote reflection on the role of the mentor as a practitioner and advisor, critical friend and assessor. There is no single 'right' solution to each issue, but the material prompts in-depth discussion of what the issues are and a consideration of how to manage complex factors towards a resolution."--BOOK JACKET.
