Teachers Need Mentors, So Why Don’t You Have One?


Listen Later

Mentoring increases teacher retention, effectiveness, and student achievement. So why do few teachers have great mentors? 

In this episode, mentor teacher Cody Franklin, joins us to discuss: 

  • Early teacher mentorship experiences: the good and the bad
  • Benefits of mentorship such as lower stress, connection, and fast tracking trial and error
  • Barriers to getting great mentors such as feeling afraid to ask for help, not having time, or having few experienced teachers at your school
  • Why mentors that you’ve chosen are better than randomly assigned appraisers
  • And why mentorship is also important for teachers with 10+ years of experience
