The teacher is focused in the classroom not only to create a special relationship only with the class as a whole but also with the individual children. Children obey the command of teacher because they accept their teacher as a role model under whose control they need to be taken care of. Teachers are role models for their students since students are copying their teachers. Every aspects of teachers' behaviour is being closely monitored by the students as teacher becomes a cardinal beacons to them. However, a very few teachers are aware about their pitfalls in dealing with the tender some students who are supposed to be path breaker instead they are lurching towards their personality .In this study, researcher has undertaken survey of male and female teachers of higher secondary schools in Raebareli district of Uttar Pradesh. Teacher Attitude Inventory of Dr. S.P. Ahluwalia was given to randomly selected teachers. Findings indicate that both male and female teachers have almost similar and positive attitude for their profession.

Teachers play a key role to proliferate the educational system as they are at the implementation level of educational acts, rules and regulations. Their traits are at a flux because of temporal and contextual variations encountered in different settings. This context led this study to explore teacher traits in real classroom practices. To achieve this goal, phenomenological research design, as a type of qualitative inquiry, has been adopted. The population of the study comprised the stakeholders of Bachelor of Mountain Tourism Management (BMTM) programme conducted in Janapriya Multiple Campus, Pokhara. The tool for collecting information was non-participant class observation, in which three classes were observed. The results of the study reveal that teacher traits can be measured by triad roles like professional, administrative, and social dimensions. The study implies that teachers should be aware of these triad roles; and the current pedagogical trends and practices.

The purpose of the study is to examine the perception of the undergraduate students towards their teachers. Every teacher is a society maker by providing proper knowledge to their students. Students are highly motivated by their teachers' teaching with external and internal behaviour. Every student gives respect to all the teachers not only for teaching but also for being a good idle man. For making the decision, the variable descriptive statistics, Correlation for identifying the factor that highly influences Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) test for sampling adequacy and Bartlett's Sphericity test for findings relationship among variables have been tested. This research paper is fully based on primary data and non-probability random sampling technique has been used for collecting data. The data have been collected from Daffodil International University and the sample size was 293. For making questionnaire Likert scale has been used. Out of 13 teachers' characteristics, it has been found that 5 factors highly affected students' perception. The major finding is teachers' parental behaviour significantly affects students' perception. So it is very important that teachers need training to show good behaviour towards their students.
