Roles of Mentors and Effective Mentees’ Teaching

Abstract

Most organizations have proven that coaching and mentoring are the best methods to enhance the excellence of an organization. Therefore, in realizing the transformation of education in the country, coaching and mentoring methods have been introduced to guide teachers to improve the quality of their teaching. Previous studies related to mentoring and the role of mentors involving trainee teachers have been conducted in western countries and in Malaysia but not many studies that involving trained teachers. Consequently, the purpose of this study is to identify the relationship of effective mentoring involving the roles of mentors that influence effective mentees’ teaching in Peninsular Malaysia. A conceptual model using structural equation modeling (SEM) has been proposed and will be used to test the relationship between the role of mentors and the effective teaching of mentees. A hypothesis has been constructed based on previous studies and also based on the research model.
