The Student-Teacher Relationship
Building bridges of trust, respect, and mutual growth
What Is A Student-Teacher Relationship?
A student-teacher relationship in the classroom is a positive relationship between the teacher and the student in efforts to gain trust and respect from each other. This relationship may consist of getting to know your students better, providing choice and encouraging the students to become stronger learners everyday.
By doing this, teachers are showing respect to their students, valuing their individuality and being polite. Having a positive relationship with your students helps them become more successful in the classroom as well as makes your classroom a safe and welcoming environment for all.
"Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn."
Ways To Build A Student-Teacher Relationship
Practical strategies for creating meaningful connections in the classroom
Show You Care
Make it apparent that you care about your students by talking with them and asking about their day. Small conversations build big connections.
Listen Actively
Hear their opinions, take into account their interests, and learn each student's unique learning styles. Listening shows respect.
Build Mutual Trust
Provide students with choices and always have their best interest in mind. Trust is the foundation of effective learning.
Be Fair & Respectful
Ensure fairness by not picking favorites and having the same corrected behavior for each student. Equity creates safety.
Encourage Positively
Give students positive words of encouragement and constructive criticism. This creates trust and helps them grow.
Define Clear Goals
Explicitly define learning goals and expectations in a positive manner, adjusting as needed for different students.
Advantages of a Student-Teacher Relationship
The transformative impact on both students and educators
Stronger Social-Emotional Skills
Students who share a positive relationship with their teacher develop stronger social-emotional skills, leading to better interpersonal relationships and emotional intelligence.
Increased Academic Knowledge
These students are more likely to absorb an increased amount of academic knowledge, improving their overall educational outcomes and performance.
Confidence Through Exploration
Students feel confident through exploration and taking risks in their academic tasks, leading to innovation and deeper understanding.
Enhanced Classroom Performance
Students demonstrate a stronger performance in the classroom, creating an environment that incorporates mutual respect and excellence.
"A Sound Mind in a Sound Body"
In addition to academic advantages, positive student-teacher relationships improve mental health and assist students in developing self-worth. Oftentimes, students look up to their educators as mentors. With this in mind, students are likely to feel pride when the educator encourages them in their learning and social interactions.
Social competence, problem-solving abilities, autonomy, and a feeling of a bright future or purpose are protective elements that boost resilience—these all can be developed in a supportive teaching atmosphere.
As noted, students benefit from positive student-teacher relationships. Likewise, educators benefit as well. While creating strong relationships with their students, educators are strengthening their own interpersonal and professional skills. By strengthening their interpersonal communication skills, educators are more likely to respond effectively to stressful situations.
