“Ecologists tell us that a tree planted in a clearing in an old forest will grow more successfully than one planted in an open field. The reason,
it seems, is that the roots of the forest tree are able to follow the intricate pathways created by former trees and thus embed
themselves more deeply. Indeed, over time, the roots of many trees may actually graft themselves to one another, creating an
interdependent mat of life hidden beneath the earth’s surface. This literally enables the stronger trees to share resources with the weaker
so the whole forest becomes healthier.”
Zachary, Lois J., The Mentor’s Guide,p. xiii

TEACHER MENTORSHIP PROGRAM

Good mentoring depends on a reciprocal learning relationshipbetween the mentee and the mentor. Together they form a
partnership to work cooperatively on achieving mutually defined goals that focus on developing skills, abilities, knowledge, and
thinking.
