This report offers guidance to those involved in bilingual education who may be or may want to mentor novice teachers in the field. The concept of mentoring is defined, and issues of mentoring implementation and alternatives in bilingual education are discussed, such as language of instruction, culture and instruction, language and cognitive development, and transformation and power relationships. More importantly, there is a discussion on the importance of preparing teachers who will help language minority students become partners in shaping the future and who will help create partnerships with non-bilingual teachers to support this process. Implications for the national education reform movement, such as Goals 2000, are also reviewed. (Contains 51 references.) (NAV)
