mentoring scheme

One of the most important roles of NEWZATS is to support its new members, especially those new to the singing teaching profession.

The NEWZATS Mentoring Scheme pairs up mentees with a mentor from within our membership’s deep mine of experience, teachers of a similar background to help them ease into their voice teaching career.

We have a small pool of money available for the Mentoring Scheme. Mentors and Mentees can apply for funding for a special training need identified in their sessions.
Any reasonable incidental mentoring expenses may be reimbursed up to $50 e.g. photocopying, postage, on production of receipts. Major items e.g. studio visit or partial conference fee, as recommended by the mentor, can be applied for as part of the mentoring scheme.

MENTees

  • ​Any Full NEWZATS member is eligible to apply​
  • Any new "Beginner Teacher" applicants are automatically enrolled in the scheme
  • Participation as a mentee can be used to fulfil a mentee’s professional development requirement, or in their CV


MENTORS

  • ​Any members can apply to be a mentor, listing their areas of expertise, general or specific
  • Mentors are volunteers and therefore will not be paid by NEWZATS
  • Participation as a mentor can be used to fulfil a mentor’s professional development requirement, or in their CV​​

PROCESS

  • Both mentors and mentees should fill in the registration form below
  • The Scheme Coordinator will conduct a matching exercise for mentor and mentee based on information provided
  • Every effort will be made to match the skills of the mentor with the requirements of the mentee
