The parts of elements, which provide sustainable professional development of young teachers, will contribute to establishment of mutual contacts between experienced and young teachers. The advantages and risks of interaction and influence of certain types of mentors on young teachers are defined and the projected benefit which a young teacher receives from interaction with a certain type of mentor. Based on the selection of the dominant component of the mentor’s personality and the leading function, the following eight types of mentor’s personalities were allocated: humanist, dictator, analyst, skillful fingers, manipulator, eternal child, counselor and seeker. Each of these types has both advantages and disadvantages. Every young teacher has his own corresponding type of a teacher-mentor, depending on the following factors: the type of the young teacher, at what stage of professional development is a young teacher, what professional support is needed (the dominant function performed by the mentor).
