Mentoring in a School Context
Professional work is complex and demanding. Learning how to think, talk and act as a teacher is a lifelong process that requires theoretical training and practical experience.
Thinking Aloud
‘The quality of everything we do depends on the quality of the thinking we do first. The quality of our thinking depends on the way we treat each other while we are thinking.’
– Nancy Kline
Autonomy & Accountability
Teaching professionals are autonomous beings, with a well-developed sense of self and purpose. Secondly, they are accountable; responsible for justifying their actions or decisions in the hierarchical structure within which they work.
What are your conversation beliefs?
Growth in self-awareness encourages us to take responsibility for our presence and contribution in conversation with other people.
