In nursing, mentor is synonymous with trusted advisor, and mentoring is a partnership between two people. Coaches help individuals find new ways to solve problems, reach goals, and design plans of action to motivate people to perform at the "top of their game.". The teacher and learner relationship involves an evaluation component (receiving a grade in a course). The intern reports to the resident, so there is more of a precepting relationship because the resident is the clinical expert, and there may also be an evaluation component in this relationship.
