Making Mentoring Work is a practical guide for school leaders interested in beginning or enhancing their mentoring programs for new teachers. Readers can use the mentoring program rubric to pre-assess their program and then choose the chapters that correspond to areas of growth. Each chapter provides background research as well as practical steps and tools to make mentoring work in a school environment. At the end of each section, readers will find discussion guides that support program leaders in making the next steps; organizing conversations with stakeholders that will transform and streamline new teacher support programs; and increase new teacher retention and practice.

Industry Reviews

Every school district and county office of education should order this book for principals, mentors, and teacher leaders interested in starting or improving induction programs for new teachers in their schools. Davis provides a thorough, step-by-step approach for induction program design using insights from research and her own extensive experience as teacher and mentor. There is no better how-to book on teacher induction.
