Teaching is exciting and rewarding, but it is like pro football in that on any given day most anything may work, while on other days nothing seems to work. But you still need to keep on playing your best. Good mentors help keep good teachers playing at their very best. . . . As the authors so aptly suggest, good teaching is more a journey than a destination. This book will help both mentors and teachers to navigate this journey successfully.</em>--Stephen Sroka, Health Education Consultant<br><br><em>Provides a wide range of practical suggestions for mentors that are based on current research and that can be 'harvested' whenever needed. The 'Precautions and Possible Pitfalls' sections serve as a welcome safety net, helping mentors to proactively examine and strategize solutions for anticipated challenges. The 'Sources' sections are particularly helpful in offering additional readings for those mentors who are interested in going deeper into a topic.</em> <strong>What Successful Mentors Do</strong> <em>is easy to use, linked to best practices, and is certain to be an invaluable resource for new and returning mentors.</em>--Theresa Ford, Developer/Consultant<br><br><em>What a great book to provide for all veteran teachers so that when we are chatting in the lunchroom and a 'new' teacher shares a dilemma, anyone on staff can chime in with advice, backed by research and experience.</em>--Diane Mierzwik, Teacher and Mentor<br>
