Teacher Mentoring

Welcome to the Teacher Mentoring Hub where you can access high-quality, peer-reviewed resources and professional learning aligned to the teacher mentor roles and competencies and engage with other teacher mentors and mentoring leaders throughout the state.

About Hub

Developing and retaining high-quality educators is essential to student success. Teacher mentoring is a critical component of supporting beginning educators as they acclimate to their local environments and to the teaching profession. The ideal teacher mentor acts as an advocate, colleague, confidant, facilitator, friend, and model for the beginning teacher. The resources available in this hub are intended to support teacher mentors in understanding their role and engaging in ongoing professional growth to better meet the needs of their mentees.

Hello All! I am so excited to be able to use this amazing platform to connect with all of you across the state, whether you are an LEA representative, a Teacher Mentor, or a New Teacher. I will actively be posting in each of the groups and hope you will find this site to be a valuable resource in supporting you as we connect, collaborate, and create processes that will improve Mentoring and Induction programs in your area.

Please visit the appropriate group to introduce yourself and provide valuable information about yourself or your programs and how you would like to improve.

I look forward to working together!
