“I know at the beginning being a mentor can feel like this but…”
“We’re not. We’re going to be very demure, very mindful, very cutesy.”
“As a TxCEE Mentor, I really enjoy the opportunity to guide and support others on their journeys. It’s fulfilling to see mentors grow, gain confidence and achieve their goals.”
“Scheduling regular Fireside Chats to discuss the challenges and successes of novice teachers helps provide support. These sessions create a safe space for novice teachers to voice their concerns and seek advice.”
“By coaching my novice teacher, I have seen a boost in his confidence. His students are learning and having fun. 🤩”
“Being a TxCEE Mentor has contributed to my professional growth by encouraging me to reflect on my teaching practices. Additionally, it fosters a sense of community and helps me connect with my colleagues.”
“You got this! Have a good school year!”
