Hi Jim! Absolutely. Click on the Google doc and scan through the names. See if any come up that can support your interest. Then just email them...letting them know that you found them through our Mentoring Program. Let me know when you connect with someone...Cheers!

Hi Lisa,

 

Right now I'm working as a kindergarten Para.  Can I participate in the Mentor program?  I am certified in MA as a Visual Art Teacher (5-12) and I'll be taking the MTEL for General Curriculum in two weeks.  I would love to have a mentor to get me through these early stages.

Just so you know, friends...I consistently share the mentoring services that this group is willing to provide in as many SM venues, as I can. We may see a larger opportunity to support educators, world-wide after the Reform Symposium in late July. http://reformsymposium.com/ Cheers to you all!

Just joined this network. I'm eager to share resources and make connections with other educators around collaboration, mentoring, and best practices. Check out our blog/website at www.peersforum.org. We're hosting a fabulous summer institute at the end of June--we'd love to welcome new members.

Mike! Our peeps here would be so thrilled to connect with you. Let me know when you connect :)
Comment by Mike Vigilant on April 13, 2011 at 10:47pm
This is a great idea.  It's my first year and a mentor from here would have absolutely helped with my insane first semester.  I will look through the list of mentors and might just e-mail one.  Thanks for setting this up.  --Mike
