Guide: First Conversations: Setting the Stage for Trust and Collaboration, Using the Getting to Know You ToolPurposeTo provide an outline for Mentors and Beginning Teachers' first meeting.IntroductionThe first meeting and interaction between a mentor and his/her beginning teacher will set the stage for building trusting relationships, and help the mentee trust in the Mentor’s confidentiality. Part of your initial responsibility as a mentor is to establish rapport and start building trust. A good way to start is by setting aside time for a short informal conversation. To help create an open and comfortable dialog, mentors should meet with the beginning teacher in a neutral space (in a teacher’s lounge or possibly off-campus) and take time to learn about their interests, background, and experiences.You may want to view this video of an example Getting to Know You conversation: https:// 43817125 from Mentor Modules.Share your excitement about your work and the opportunity for growth for both of you.Get to know each other by asking questions.Listen openly to needs and concernsProvide practical assistance, such as oArranging the roomFinalizing rules or proceduresGetting first week’s lesson plans setCataloging booksMaking sense of start-of-the-year paperworkDuplicating materialsClarify each of your roles and expectationsProvide both assistance and a vision of your instructional mentoringUse the Getting to Know You Form as a guide during the meeting and takes notes on your conversation.Mentor Name: Mentee Name: Date:Time:Supporting Resources for New Teacher Mentor 101 Workshop“Getting to Know You” ToolFirst MeetingQuestions:Responses/NotesTell me about your background:What experiences have you had with teachers and students?
