| Sumario: | The teaching of foreign languages in bilingual sections today plays a fundamental role in preparing citizens for the world of employment, as is clear from European determinations. The teaching role and the methodology adopted in the classroom are key elements in maintaining students' readiness to learn and acquire foreign languages at compulsory school levels. Therefore, this paper addresses the above issues by focusing on the notion of mentoring, because of the high value it represents in promoting communication and culture in the classroom. It takes as a reference a training experience in a mentoring project led by the Department of Education of Castile and Leon and the University of Cardiff, in collaboration with the University of Valladolid. This experience made it possible to observe, in situ in two schools, the intervention of five Welsh mentors with activities prepared for the sixth year of Primary Education and the second year of Secondary Education. From the critical evaluation of these observations, a proposal for a contextualised intervention is planned, as a continuation and improvement of the previous activities. Finally, this paper concludes with reflections on the relevance of mentoring in the foreign language classroom in Secondary Education. |
