Impact of Teachers' Attitudes on the Achievement of Students

The present research explores the impact of attitudes of teachers on the achievement of students. The attitude of the teachers deeply affects the achievement of the students because students are very strongly influenced by their teachers as compared to others. A sample of 30 students of class 10th from Lahore Cantt. was selected randomly for the present study. Pre-test and post test research design was employed. On the basis of the results of the pre-test, three groups were formulated with equal means, each group was restricted to 10 students. It is clear from the scores that there was significant difference in the mean scores of the achievements of the groups taught in a friendly disciplined and in a traditional way. The largest difference exists between the means of the group B (disciplined) and group C (traditional). The study shows that if the teacher adopts a friendly or disciplined attitude rather than the traditional attitude, the achievement of the students would be higher.
