Teaching is a multifaceted profession. The teachers have to perform many roles other than the process of teaching and imparting information to the students. They take up vital places in the lives of the students in their classrooms. Mainly they set the tone of their classrooms, build a warm environment, and take care of students by looking for any sign of trouble. They become role models for the students.
The role of a teacher in the classroom as a leader is to lead students, and families. The classroom teacher is responsible for creating a positive and disciplined learning environment:
– in the classroom
– in co-curricular activities
– in interacting informally with students
In this way, each student is challenged to grow in knowledge and maturity, according to his potential, in all aspects of his life.
The classroom teacher is responsible for:
- Promoting the mission and philosophy of the School/College through structured classroom prayer, participation in the educational life of the College, and modelling of appropriate standards of behaviour.
- Maintaining a positive and effective learning environment through well prepared lessons, which cater a wide range of student abilities and interests.
- Setting of realistic and challenging academic standards of student performance.
- A challenging and realistic program of student homework.
- A comprehensive attention to students work submitted for marking and supervision.
- Demonstrating knowledge, competence and confidence in the relevant subject discipline.
- Demonstrating high levels of professionalism in all activities.
Let us have a detailed look on teacher’s roles as teachers serve many other roles in the classroom:
The most common role of the teacher in the classroom is to teach knowledge to children. Teachers are given a curriculum they must follow that meets state guidelines. This curriculum is followed by the teacher so that complete knowledge is conveyed to the students in the given time (academic year). Teachers teach in many ways, such as lectures, small group activities and hands-on learning activities.
Teachers play an important role in making the classroom environment either positive or negative. Students often imitate a teacher's actions. If the teacher prepares a warm, happy environment, then students will also be happy. The teachers are responsible for the social behavior in their classrooms. This behavior is primarily a reflection of the teacher's actions and the environment she/he sets.
Students spend a great deal of time with their teacher and their teacher becomes a role model to them. This can be a positive or negative effect depending on the teacher. Teachers not only teach the children, but also love and take care for them. Therefore teachers are respected by the community and become a role model to students and parents.
Mentoring is a natural role played by the teachers. Mentoring is a way by which a teacher encourages students to do the best they can. This also includes encouraging students to enjoy learning. Listening to students carefully is the part of mentoring. By taking time to listen to what students say, teachers impart to students a sense of ownership in the classroom. This helps build their confidence and helps them want to be successful.
As a protector, teacher looks for signs of trouble in the students. When students' behaviors change and any sign of physical abuse are noticed, teachers are required to look into the problem and solve it as per rules.
