The study was conducted to examine the challenges associated with mentoring of pre service teachers in selected Senior High Schools in the Kumasi Metropolis of the
Ashanti Region. The objectives of the study were to determine the processes involved
in mentoring teacher trainees in the study area, ascertain the factors that promote
effective mentoring of teacher trainees in the study area and to identify the challenges
associated with the mentoring process. Descriptive survey design with closed ended
questionnaire was used as the research instrument for the study. The targeted
population of this study comprised all the mentors and mentees of Kumasi High
Schools and Anglican Senior High School. Purposive sampling technique was
therefore used to select all the 164 mentors and mentees for the study. The study
found among others that the processes involved in mentoring teacher trainees are
relationship building and exchanging information. Factors that promote effective
mentoring of teacher trainees are listening actively in the mentoring relationship, and
encouraging and inspiring mentees. Challenges associated with the mentoring process
are selection and training of mentees and mentor not being the expert in the subject
area of mentees. Based on the findings, it is recommended that the Ghana Education
Service should see to it that only mentors who are experts in the study area of the
mentees should be assigned to the mentees. |
