Mentoring-values and profiles in primary and preschool education

Abstract

Because few schools consistently provide a sustainable preparation for the school of the future and for life, it takes a person to make us see, learn and apply what we cannot see, learn, apply on our own. More precisely, an experienced person, willing to share real personal creative experience, for the benefit of other people, of the institution in which he integrates through a relationship based on management, on respect and trust, on superior knowledge, on existing legislation, on intuition and self-created opportunities. This person is the leader, the coach and even the mentor. The field is naturally called leadership, and on a managerial and didactic professional level it is called mentoring. A quality mentoring activity has an important role in anticipating and reducing the difficulties that could intervene in the teaching career of future teachers. I will reflect on the training and career development of teachers from the perspective of the importance of mentoring, in order to ensure a quality education for children through adequate training of teachers. In order to achieve performance, it is necessary to combine theory and practice harmoniously and to acquire the ability to use the knowledge gained in new learning contexts. The study will identify solutions for improving the quality of education by introducing the role of mentoring in the development of the teaching career. After carrying out the research, I will know the degree of satisfaction of the actors involved, with special reference to their activity in kindergarten and school and to the real and harmonious progress of preschoolers and students.
