Mentoring Services

During the first two years of employment, mentoring is provided by the employing school system and additional support and mentoring is available through the master teachers and faculty that assist in implementing the NC TEACH program. 

Mentoring at host universities varies and may include weekly seminar discussions, continued academic advisement, online discussion forums, Praxis exam preparation, and on site (school) supervision by faculty, master teachers and retired teachers. 

E-Mentoring

E-Mentoring is available at several NC TEACH host universities. E-mentoring provides an online environment to support dialogue between beginning teachers and veteran teachers or master education professors.

E-Mentees are beginning teachers who want to have an online mentor to assist them throughout the school year and they:

          •    Participate in an online community of learners that often include veteran teachers and content experts

          •    Are generally matched with similar content and grade level mentors

          •    Have access to a vast array of resources

E-Mentors are veteran and exemplary teachers, have demonstrated content leadership and want to mentor a beginning teacher online.
