Abstract: The preparation of English language teachers to become beacons of global competitiveness necessitates teacher education institutions in the world to put emphasis on the mentoring process. The goal of this research was to assess the average degree of self-efficacy among English language preservice teachers and the variables that influence it. Over the course of the study, 150 third- and fourth-year English language student teachers (N=80/70; 90% females) were asked to fill out a self-report questionnaire about their perspectives and attitudes on the teaching profession. This information was gathered using the Mentoring for Effective Primary Teaching instrument and the Teachers' Sense of Efficacy Scale. Findings suggest that English language student teachers who have a mentor during their practicum experience are more likely to become effective English language educators. It was determined that there was a statistically significant correlation between the two variables. According to the findings, students had a much more positive view of their own teaching abilities in the fourth year compared to the third. The findings of this research suggest that the average level of confidence among English language preservice teachers varies considerably depending on whether or not one or both of their parents are also teachers. Multiple regression analysis shows that aspects of mentor teachers' teaching styles are the most reliable predictor of student teachers' evaluations of their own teaching abilities.
