This paper focuses on perceptions of B.Ed students and their teachers on key indicators for effective mentoring, in pedagogical skills. The study was conducted in late 2006 on a purposive sample of 252 B.Ed students and 44 teachers of two Government Colleges for Elementary Teachers (GCETs) – Lahore and Mianwali in Pakistan. Data were collected through developing two questionnaires - one each for B.Ed students and their teachers. Their opinions were invited on indicators for effective mentoring, and mentoring B.Ed students in six pedagogical areas during the one-year B.Ed programme. Findings revealed that mentor-mentee good relationships, mentor’s commitment to achieve targets and effective supervision, monitoring and evaluation were the most important indicators for effective mentoring. The B.Ed students were relatively better mentored in lesson planning and assessment techniques, but they liked to be more mentored in lesson presentation and communication skills, and attitudinal development. Male students were relatively better mentored than female; likewise the students were relatively better mentored at GCET Lahore than Mianwali.
