The Magic of Mentoring: Developing Others and Yourself
Autor Carol Thompsonen Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 ian 2019
Written by Carol Thompson, who has worked with a range of trainee teachers and mentors, this book draws from the author’s own experience to explore the importance of self-development, and the ways in which this can be enhanced through practice. Reviewing key themes in relation to mentoring, including models and current practice, it considers the creation of a nurturing environment through effective communication as well as acknowledging the need to generate the right challenge for mentees. All aspects of mentoring are outlined, emphasising how personal development can improve the experience of your mentees, build your own confidence, enhance your transferable skills, and advance your own professional practice and relationships. Engaging activities are provided for mentors to undertake to support their own professional development.
The Magic of Mentoring is an ideal guide for all those studying coaching or mentoring on a formal programme or for anyone who mentors others in formal or informal settings. The structure of 15 concise chapters lends itself to referencing back and targeted reading for specific guidance.

"This accessible and timely book is a responsive contribution to how educationalists in the field of Adult and Further Education (and indeed beyond) can draw on the magic of mentoring to create a positive change for themselves as mentors and their mentees. It takes a step by step approach to developing and driving forward knowledge and skills; never dry it is highly creative and reflective in its democratic and deeply engaging approach. I highly recommend this text for those of you who want to weave your own magic in and out of their classrooms." - Professor Vicky Duckworth, Edge Hill University
"A thoroughly engaging and insightful book, which expertly draws together research, practice and personal reflection. Beautifully illustrated throughout. An essential read for those involved in the complexities of school leadership and mentoring." - Rob Negus, Arts Director, Camps Kenwood & Evergreen, New Hampshire.
"This is a very good book that provides a useful introduction to the theory and practice of successful mentoring. I really like the structure of this book as its 15 concise but engaging chapters introduce key concepts, explore theory and best practice and then recommend targeted reading for further study. Theoretical content includes Transactional Analysis, NLP, Emotional Intelligence, Johari’s Window, Gibbs Reflective cycle and many more. Using the metaphor of a nurtured tree and by describing a sprinkling of magic in each chapter this best practice guide also provides engaging activities to support a mentors professional development. Highly recommended." - David Andrews, Loughborough College of Further & Higher Education
