This study discusses the observation of the mentoring competencies of teachers who will support the teaching practice of teacher trainees as mentors. It is a big challenge for teacher training experts to prepare and organize the one-year long teaching practice in the so called ‘integrated’ system of teacher training. As part of the preparation, these experts visit and analyse the lessons of the teachers mentoring the students’ practice, and they also assign the teachers with the new tasks. The first part of the study provides an overview of the elementary and special mentoring competencies required to become a mentor. The latter is dealt with in detail, distinguishing between the competencies of a beginner and an experienced mentor. The second part of the study summarizes the main principles of mentoring and classroom observation and it introduces a script recommended to mentors where class visits are organized. It describes in detail the possible steps of discussions before the lesson, for the classroom observation itself, and for post lesson discussions. This study aims to provide help not only for the analysis of the mentors’ lessons, but also for class visits of teachers’ working groups at school.
