Rossella D’Ugo
This paper aims to give a general definition of "mentoring" and to identify the core skills that a "Mentor for teachers" should possess in order to support his team. Specifically, a Mentor's role is to guide and sustain each teacher and the team as a whole in developing their own potential, in discovering their strengths and weaknesses and in making increasingly aware, creative and advanced educational decisions.
