Thought-provoking and action-generating discussions reveal how to become a proactive protege, making this book a wonderful resource in the preparation of prospective teachers. A step-by-step approach illustrates the unique perspective of receiving mentorship, and how to make the most of it. Topics discussed include:

  • Building trust and clarifying communication
  • Identifying who does what

  • Planning your professional growth

Before you can profit from experience, you must acquire it. This book reveals the unique skills necessary to interpret and put to use the guidance, wisdom, instruction, and assistance of a mentor and become a self-empowered, proactive protege.
