Mentoring Relationship Analysis

Reflecting back over the years since receiving my initial National Board Certification, I clearly see that the mentoring roles I have been a part of have been the most rewarding. Mentoring has enabled me to collaborate with others new to the profession as well as with veteran teachers in the classroom. Through this collaboration in a variety of settings, I have been able to improve the effectiveness of my teaching practices which in turn has had a positive impact on my students. A study from Teacher Collaboration in Instructional Teams and Student Achievement by the American Educational Research Journal (2015) states that the quality of teacher collaboration positively influences teacher performance

Criminologist James Fox of Northeastern University predicts that murders committed by teens will skyrocket as the population of kids 10 and under is higher than population of 21st century teens by 20%. (Stephens) Mentoring is the act of helping out someone that isn't as knowledgeable or experienced in different areas. The goal is to make them leaders. (Patterson)

After completing my Mentoring Confidence Inventory, I learned that my lowest score, 18 out of 25, was on the communicating effectively category. I was not surprised on scoring low on this category. Friends and family members often tell me that I need to work better on communicating effectively and listening to other’s perspectives. Under the communicating effectively category, there is a statement claiming, “I have effective listening skills.” I rated myself a 3 out of 5 when reading this. Sometimes when having hot topic discussions with my peers, I react abruptly to something someone has said that I do not agree with. I recognize that this is not a great way to respond and it does not constitute effective listening. I get so caught up in

For this reason clear terms and boundaries must be set and adhered to prior and throughout the mentoring process.

God placed a desire in her heart to make a difference in the lives of children specifically to help heal and show love to those who are products of broken homes such as single parent homes. This has led Keah to become the COO of Sage Kids. She diligently works alongside the mentors of Sage Mentoring to create programs that are similar but uniquely formatted just for the children of the mothers who receive mentoring through Sage Mentoring. It is clear to Keah that God has called her for a purpose of nurturing, teaching and building up the children who at times are the forgotten, overlooked and fighting an uphill battle due to the circumstances they find themselves surrounded

Attached is a completed application for the mentoring program I would like to pursue. Not sure if I have overstepped my boundary, but I have discussed this with my RA, Nick Lalpuis, and he supports the proposal. I also discussed this with Laura Watson this morning and she is in agreement with it as well. Please advise if there are any additional documentation or steps I need to go through to get

The goal of mentoring in military organizations is to help junior personnel reach their full potential by having senior personnel help develop them, and pass on their practical expertise and professional knowledge to personnel who are committed to advancement and success (United States, 1995). A thriving mentoring program will enhance our overall professionalism and help meet the future needs of our organization. In my current job, I am charged with implementing a mentoring program where officers, enlisted personnel, and civilian employees can pass on not only career development guidance to junior personnel, but also the principles, traditions, shared values, and lessons of our profession.

From the past year of joining the EY College Map Mentoring Program, I have learn numerous things about the program. I have learn to never give up in life, study skills, advice from my mentors. They have given me advice on Financial Aid, assist me to learn about scholarships and applying toward the next step of Education.

I must make time in College for studying and having fun. It’s always

This paper will look at the development, difficulties, and outcomes of mentoring in order for it to meaningfully influence the lives of at-risk children.

The issues I have decided to address are the lack of formal in group mentors and mentorship opportunities available for female students, faculty, and staff of color. The University has been intentional about recruiting students, faculty and staff of color. Despite these efforts our women of color who work as faculty or staff are the few available mentors available for students. Unfortunately, they are burdened with few professional growth opportunities while juggling work, mentorship requests, as well as providing the minority voice on committees throughout the campus. Subsequently, these women do not have in group mentors to support their growth. While some research shows, professionals who have been mentored are more likely to engage in mentoring, this does not seem hold true for women in general, it is especially untrue for women of color (Wright and Wright 1987). Increased professional expectations, distress and demands are likely the reasons for this difference. With all this, it is clear that women of color are at a significant disadvantage for finding mentors on this campus, and in most male dominated fields.

“A mentoring program is essential to a successful business and to succeed your business for the next generation.”

I interview Amani because she is a teenager guided by mentorship. She revealed to me how being mentored by positive, loving, and caring people has changed who she is as a person. She said “I see a big change in myself. It’s like my whole life I’ve been so angry and upset, and it was all because I was being misguided and I didn’t have the chance to become who I am now.” This interview helped me because It kind of showed me what type of response I should be getting from the kids in my program. It is simply a calibration of how the kids that decide to participate in my mentorship program should react.

This essay will start by defining mentoring, and giving a brief understanding of mentoring.

This essay will focus on the example of mentoring within schools and a learning mentor to be more specific.

With the development of the more organic and less formal organisational structures the role of mentors has shifted with these changes. Unlike previously where mentors where seen as formal trainers who taught newcomers the processes and got them acquainted with the cultures and the systems within the organisation. Which required good interpersonal skills and a good knowledge of the activity or tasks the mentee would have to undertake, and be able to effectively relay or demonstrate the tasks or activities to the mentee. As opposed to more recently where a mentor would have to be more of an emotional counselor and demonstrate more skills than were traditionally required from
