On-Demand Session Recordings

Summer Modern Mentoring Tour

The full series, yours to watch anytime.

Brenda and Jeff led five sessions on building a stronger mentoring program. Every session is recorded and free to watch — made for district leaders, mentor coordinators, principals, and lead mentors who want to strengthen induction, equip mentors, and help new teachers start strong.

Why this matters

New teachers need more than orientation and occasional check-ins. They need timely guidance, practical tools, and mentors who know how to support them through the real challenges of the school year.

These recordings give your team a practical path for creating the kind of mentoring experience new teachers need now — on your schedule, as many times as you need it.
