From the outset of my association with her, she has been a conscientious and dedicated administrator, a mentor, and a generous and supportive colleague. Readily able to foster constructive connections between course material and her own exemplary classroom experience, she has consistently provided innovative direction and support to classroom teachers by way of the books she has authored. Generations of educators have and will continue to use them.<br/> <br/> Dr. Radford's commitment to teaching in urban populations has distinguished her contribution to the education profession. I continue to be impressed by her command of relevant research and effective instructional techniques. Her skill is facilitating communication. She effectively addresses the interface between practice and education with the primary objective of identifying the relevant issues in support of human well-being. Dr. Radford is truly a reflective practitioner, and I always appreciate opportunities to learn from her as she continues to clarify the relevant issues in educational practice by way of her latest publications.</em>--Cameron Marzelli, Adjunct Faculty, Graduate School of Arts and Social Sciences<br><br><em>I love the idea of having mentors and mentees work alongside each other with </em>Mentoring in Action<em> and </em>The First Years Matter<em>, sharing their thoughts about challenges and successes each month and opening up a reflective dialogue.</em>--Karen Mayotte, Grade 2 Classroom Teacher/ Co-coordinator Mentor Program<br><br><em>I will most definitely use the </em>Mentoring in Action<em> text paired with </em>The First Years Matter<em> text as a month-by-month curriculum to focus mentoring conversations. </em>--Kristen Daly, First Grade Teacher<br><br><em>In a profession that loses 50% of its entering teachers by Year Five, Carol Radford's</em> Mentoring in Action<em> is a beautiful, wise, month-by-month guide to powerful, mindful mentoring of the novice instructor. Filled with decades of her own teaching, research and mentoring wisdom, Radford offers a move-by-move guide to building the mentoring relationship, examples of mentoring in action, and instructions and modeling of purposeful mentoring conversations. This book is a must-buy for any teacher leader, instructional coach, curriculum director...or even the brand-new teacher. We are lucky to have Mentoring in Action back fully revised and more complete than ever, to access Carol Radford's wisdom and guidance.</em>--Dr. Kirsten Olson, Author of Wounded By School and The Mindful School Leader<br><br><em>Integrating teacher evaluation standards fits naturally into the reflection prompts and activities in </em>The First Years Matter<em> and </em>Mentoring in Action <em>texts.</em>--Caitlin Corrieri, Mentor Coordinator<br><br><em>Our district will use the </em>Mentoring in Action<em> and </em>The First Years Matter <em>texts to directly align with teacher evaluation standards and create a common language among our mentors and novice teachers.</em>--Bethany Botelho, Mentor Teacher Facilitator<br><br><em>The </em>Mentoring in Action <em>curriculum will guide the mentors as they work with their mentees, providing some commonality while at the same time allowing for differentiation. </em>--Joyce English, Grade 1 Teacher<br><br><em>The two texts, </em>Mentoring in Action<em> and </em>The First Years Matter<em>, are companion texts that give both participants a guide for discussions, suggestions for activities, and a place to track reflections. They also allow for targeted differentiation.</em>--Maureen Perkins, Reading Specialist<br><br><em>The 2nd edition of </em>Mentoring in Action: Guiding, Sharing, and Reflecting with Novice Teachers<em> by Carol Pelletier Radford offers a very well-organized and practical roadmap that includes reflections, activities, tips, and forms to support mentors who work with beginning teachers. In addition, the companion website for this book offers extensive resources for mentors including many videos. This book offers support for those who lead by mentoring others whether they are new to mentoring or want to increase their knowledge and skill as a mentor. The best mentorship programs include support for the mentors, not just for new teachers. This book provides a roadmap for that support, whether it is followed by individual teacher-mentors or by those in charge of mentoring programs. In fact, everyone in a position of leadership should read and use the contents of this book.</em>--Barbara Levin, Professor and Author of Every Teacher a Leader<br><br><em>This is a terrific resource for mentors and coaches at all levels. It strategically helps mentors reflect on what novice teachers might be thinking and needing, and what they as mentors could be doing to support them. Step by step, Radford guides us through the year. The book is chock full of ideas and questions to use with novice teachers. It′s a really useful tool to have on hand.</em>--Jennifer Abrams, Author of Hard Conversations Unpacked and The Multigenerational Workplace<br><br><em>This year we were trained to use the </em>Mentoring in Action<em> book. This has provided a common language and framework for mentors, which has been most helpful to maintain a consistent program.</em>--Marguerite Rancourt, Lead Mentor<br><br><em>What amazes me about the </em>Mentoring in Action<em> and </em>First Years Matter<em> books is that every aspect of the teaching field is addressed. </em>--Kerri Schoonover, History Teacher<br><br><em>With the </em>Mentoring in Action<em> and </em>The First Years Matter<em> books, training of mentors is consistent and comprehensive. The First Years Matter is structured enough to provide a clear path toward helping a new hire to achieve independence.</em>--John Radosta, Mentoring Coordinator<br>
