Abstract
The critical role of the teacher is laying the paradigmatic groundwork for students learning to be professional. Teachers manifest in their comportment the intellectual, affective, and ethical bases of professional expertise. Their very conduct, enhanced by knowledge, embodies the essential message about how to be a helper. Three interwoven processes modeling, mentoring, and mirroring form the basis for professional education. They are converging and commingling processes, not independent elements in learning, as described here for intelligibilitys sake; they are multidirectional in influence and spiral back on each other, comprising a wholesome and fulfilling professional educational venture. Each individual mode is important in and of itself, but their interrelationship is the compelling element. Modeling is a complex process involving observation, imitation, and identification by students of the teacher. It occurs whether or not you intend it or not. Many of the same skills and conditions that promote client growth promote student growth. Strive to create an ambiance that engages students. Seek to engross them at a level that allows them to take the concepts they learn, as well as the examples you provide, whether tacitly or explicitly, from seeing you practice with them in class, and transfer them to their contact with clients. The words you utter, the actions you take, the manner in which you conduct the class are carefully observed and considered by students. They attend to your preparation, enthusiasm, and relatedness as lived lessons about how to deliver these same attributes and functions with clients. They observe your unspoken feedback how your tone and facial expression reveal whether you are attuned and on the right track. In your interaction with students, whether consciously or not, you continually display your own competence in your discipline. Students observe how you practice what you preach in your dealings with them, with colleagues, with syllabus material, nascent ideas, and theories. They inevitably appraise your ability to facilitate communication, manage dilemmas, encourage mutuality, and foster cooperation in working associations with others. They assess your patience, availability, and skill.
