This article explores the psychological effects of mentoring on aspiring English teachers, focusing on its influence on professional well-being and commitment to the profession. Drawing on a review of contemporary theoretical and empirical research, it shows that effective mentoring programs significantly reduce burnout, enhance teaching confidence, and provide vital emotional support during the challenging early stages of a teaching career. The study examines different mentoring models and their psychological outcomes, such as stress reduction, professional identity formation, and increased resilience, while also addressing challenges specific to English language teaching. The findings reveal a strong relationship between high-quality mentoring and improved psychological well-being, lower attrition rates, and continuous professional development among novice educators. The article concludes with practical recommendations for educational institutions, highlighting the need for structured and context-sensitive mentoring programs that support both pedagogical skill development and the psychosocial needs of aspiring English teachers.
