In secondary schools and specifically in the mathematics course there is a need to integrate
ICT. Mentoring helps to overcome barriers and difficulties in achieving this integration while
it can also raise the levels of the other two components of TPACK, namely content and
pedagogical knowledge, in teachers. This research was done quantitatively and by sending
questionnaires to mathematicians of each type of school. We received 86 responses in total
and concluded that there is an acceptance that the use of digital tools would provide facilities
to the teacher, help students to understand concepts and improve the learning process. In
addition, our conclusions show that for teachers it is time-consuming and difficult to move
from a traditional course to a more modern one using ICT and that guidance from an
experienced mentor would play a decisive role in removing specific difficulties.
