Developing Effective Mentors preview.video.1

http://schoolimprovement.com/topics/coaching_mentoring. Coaching and mentoring: research shows that when coaching accompanies training, teachers transfer 80 to 90 percent of what they learn into the classroom, compared to only 5 to 10 percent with training alone (Joyce and Showers, 1995). Teachers of all experience levels benefit from coaching and mentoring programs, which are cost-effective ways to make a vast impact on teacher quality and student achievement.

Our research-based resources guide you through each step of developing an instructional coaching or mentoring program and training coaches in their work. From our experience in thousands of districts, we passionately believe that instructional coaching is the foundational element you need to successfully implement any school improvement initiative.
