Resources for Pre-Service Teacher Preparation

A Mentor/Cooperating Teacher in the school plays a very important role in shaping the teacher candidate with a professional attitude which will follow them into the teaching profession. The Mentor/Cooperating Teacher provides direct experiences by inviting the teacher candidate into their classroom, serving as a teacher and mentor to the new teacher candidate.
