Abstract
Effective teacher education programs are pivotal in preparing future educators, and host teachers play a crucial role in shaping the practical aspects of this training. This study explores the perceptions of host teachers involved in mentoring pre-service teachers, focusing on their views about the effectiveness of teaching practices in teacher education. By examining the experiences of host teachers, the research highlights the strengths and challenges of hosting pre-service teachers in real classroom environments. Through qualitative interviews and surveys, the study uncovers themes related to mentorship, the development of teaching skills, and the professional growth of both pre-service teachers and host teachers. The findings suggest that while host teachers view the mentoring process as beneficial for fostering reflective practices in pre-service teachers, they also face challenges such as time constraints, workload, and the need for institutional support. The paper advocates for a more structured and supportive framework for host teachers to enhance their role in teacher education programs and to further promote effective teaching practices. The study concludes with recommendations for improving collaboration between teacher education institutions and host schools to optimize the training experience for both pre-service and in-service educators.
