Welcome to our Mentoring Program

Congratulations on choosing to undertake the RMTC Mentoring Program. Whether you’ve chosen the 6-month or 12-month mentoring program, I’m sure you will gain insight into effective teaching strategies.

Each month, you will be asked to provide a short video of specific tasks based on the goals and skills we have discussed the previous month.  Videos need to be uploaded to Youtube and submitted by the last Friday of the month.

As well as you teaching, the videos should also show your students, so the effectiveness of your teaching can be appraised. You may need to ask your students to complete a video/photograph release form, but please ensure they know these videos are for your professional development and will not be used in social media or advertising, etc.

Hopefully, your students will be very supportive during your mentorship - they will certainly appreciate your new skills and teaching methods you introduce to them.

The following pages in the Mentor Program will hopefully give you ideas and starting points for your Tai Chi teaching, whether your goals are to set up a self sufficient business, or whether you’re happy with just one or two classes a week. Feel free to adapt, add to, modify and change anything you need to - each instructor has different goals, skills and objectives, and of course, these are often determined by your students’ needs, so please remain true to your own teaching style and goals.

I’m very excited to have the opportunity to work with you and to see what we can achieve over the next few months. If, at any time, you have questions or need advice, please feel free to email me

Kind regards

Jenny Harrison
