REPORT


Mentoring in Higher Education “It is refreshing to recognise such a diversity of contexts, practices and approaches to mentoring relationships and the centrality of these to our work as educational professionals. The editors have done an excellent job in combining complementary research accounts from tutors mentoring students as well as peer academic mentors in Higher Education. Chapters within the text consider mentoring for social justice in addition to a philosophical look at the relational ethics of mentoring. This International collection is critical to understanding how we can all play a role in mentoring to liberate and educate.” —Dr Christine Lewis, PG Cert Mentoring and Coaching Course Leader, Edge Hill University, UK “For anyone working in higher education this book offers great tips and advice on how to use mentoring on a practical level. The book is also enhanced by drawing on global perspectives. For educational purposes, this book would be a very useful teaching resource for lecturers in education, but also as guidance to any students studying at undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral level to understand how they can engage with mentoring to enhance their personal learning journeys.” —Dr Mel Bull, EMCC Accredited Coach and Mentor, MBTI Practitioner and Insights Practitioner, Senior University Teacher in Leadership and Leading Change, Executive and Professional Education, University of Sheffield, UK
