Do You Need A Superb Special Education Mentor?

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and burnt out as a self-contained special education teacher? You’re not alone! Teaching can be a rewarding but demanding job, and it’s easy to get overwhelmed by the demands of the classroom. That’s where a mentor can come in!

What is a mentor? A mentor is someone who has experience in the field and can offer guidance, support, and encouragement. They help you navigate the challenges of teaching. This person can help you feel more confident and capable in your role. Therefore, they can provide you with the tools and strategies you need to succeed. This is what a mentor is.

Here are just a few ways I can help self-contained special education teachers this school year.

Personalized support

A peer mentor can provide you with personalized support and guidance to help you navigate the challenges of teaching in a special education classroom. They can offer advice and strategies based on your specific needs and goals, and can help you feel more confident and capable in your role.

You can meet with me on a weekly basis in a group coaching call, or set up 1:1 meetings with me as often as you need. I personalize your mentorship to your needs as a mentor.

Professional development

A support like this can help you stay up-to-date on the latest research and best practices in special education, and can provide you with professional development opportunities to help you improve your skills and knowledge.

This program has 20+ training videos that you have access to unlimited! You can replay, rewatch and get a certificate for completing the training videos.

Stress management

Teaching can be stressful, especially in a self-contained special education classroom. A mentorship program can help you develop stress management strategies to help you cope with the demands of the job and avoid burnout.

You want someone who gets it. I get it. I’ve been there. I can help you with any stressful situations and walk you through how it should be handled. You’ll have help from an administrator without going to your administration!

Networking with a Mentor

This support system can introduce you to other professionals in the field and help you build your professional network. This can be especially helpful if you are new to the field or feeling isolated in your role as a self-contained special education teacher.

The weekly group calls are a great way to meet with other educators in the field and connect with others who get it. They have similar classes to you and can easily bounce ideas off of you!

Encouragement

I can provide you with encouragement and support when you’re feeling overwhelmed or discouraged. They can help you see the value of your work. Mentors remind you of the impact you are making on your students’ lives.
