      Role of teachers in student personality
 
1.Encourage role models
2.Character building
3. Set Principles & Discipline.
4.Build Empathy
5. Insist of respect
6. Volunteerism
7. Actions speak
8. Avoid Labels
9.Punish Lovingly
10. Listen.
11. Help them
 
 
 
Students must choose a role model to follow. Teachers can
make a conscious effort to highlight positive characters
from science, literature, history, and arts as role models.
Teachers can even make them dramatize story elements
and styles with role plays and let them make a better
choice to inspire.
Discuss open-ended about current scenarios and
leaderships, celebrities, sports figures as role models as
well.
Ask them to select people matching their words with
actions and help them to elaborate on how they can
improve their own and other's lives with good quality
traits.
 
1. ENCOURAGE ROLE MODELS
 
2. CHARACTER BUILDING
 
There is a famous saying that; "Character can be measured
by what one would do if no one were looking."
Hence, if the correct character is infused deeply at an early
age, positive behavior is automatic.
There are individual pillars of character building,
including; respect, care, responsibility, fairness,
trustworthiness, courage, diligence, and integrity.
This is an ideal way to infuse every trait in their
personality, raise awareness so they can strive to get them
in-depth to themselves.
Suggest them a book and read specific chapters with them
that can come up with their personal slogans for it.
 
3. SET PRINCIPLES & DISCIPLINE
 
As a teacher, it is your responsibility to set appropriate and
practical rules for classroom behavior.
Get a clear perception of ground rules. Let them know
what is acceptable and what is unacceptable in the
premises.
Let the character traits and practices infuse built by every
rule. Set good examples of yourself, as well.
Stay positive in praising students who exhibit good
character and good behavior.
 
 
4. BUILD EMPATHY
 
Make a zero-tolerance policy for character assaults,
name-calling, and bullying. Encourage caring and
empathetic attitudes.
Ensure every student is included in caring activities
and describe or enlist the random acts of kindness.
Concept reward and appreciation systems for students
and let them elaborate on their understanding.
 
5. INSIST ON RESPECT
 
An ideal class should be established on the foundations of
respect and pillars of politeness.
Respecting other's points of view and protecting their own
self-respect without being defensive based on the positive
traits of characters.
For any miss conduct of rules and situations, met with
inappropriate consequences, make a strict application of
rules on abuse and negativity intolerance in any kind of
situation.
 
6. VOLUNTEERISM
 
Highlight the virtues and importance of volunteerism in
your classroom.
Make different volunteer ship program in your class or
school and motivate your students to participate in them.
Let them assist in lab, plantations, read for junior classes,
help at a local fundraiser, collect donations, provide
support to students recovering from injury or illness.
Make a worthy cause campaign primarily that serves
disabled or elderly people to encourage emotions of
sympathy into them. .
 
7. ACTIONS SPEAK
 
Learning and knowledge is of no use if not applied well.
Hence, challenge your students to do projects out of their
education to benefit school, community, or city.
Sit with them and brainstorm creative ideas to cultivate the
pillars of personality development.
Let them strive for a spirit of a will to do. Let senior
students help junior ones to plan the necessary steps of the
activity.
Also, it involves parents to motivate them at home as well.
 
8. AVOID LABELS
 
Just like character assault, labeling children with a habit or
a thing is the worst thing that can happen with them.
It affects their thought processing. Also, avoid comparing
a kid with another even if they are too good to be
idealized.
Let them express their own potential and personality. This
will help them to behave in a meaningful way.
 
It is not necessary that punishment always have to be
violent and abusive. To handle your students properly, you
need to punish them lovingly.
Make them on the point of stress to differentiate between
the right and the wrong.
Explain the reasons for not approving certain activities and
convince them for their own benefit. Make sure you both
don't disappoint each other.
 
9. PUNISH LOVINGLY
 
10. LISTEN
 
Listen to the individual concerns of your students. Give
them undivided attention. Let them open up to your trust
as the golden rule of working wonders.
This is an ideal way of giving them a sense of worthiness
and built confidence in their personalities.
 
11. HELP THEM
 
Childhood is the age of lots of learning and changes that
are quick and a lot to deal with.
Help them out with being there for your students
whenever they need you. Be the ultimate support for them
as a responsible teacher.
Guide them to go through life's ups and down successfully
with inner strength.
 
12. POSITIVE ATTITUDE
 
Don’t find fault with others
I can do instead of cannot do
I Choose to do instead of I have to do or I need to do
 
 
       
Benefits of Positive Attitude
 
Solves Problems
Breeds Loyalty
Cultivates team work
Makes Healthy Atmospheres
Reduce Stress
Develops Pleasing Personality
 
Confidence
 
It is the key to over-all development of any child and
teachers should always keep in mind that their focus
should be increasing confidence by creating interactive
group activities in class.
Authenticity
The teacher should not discourage the originality in the
students as they will flourish more if they will be
themselves.
 
 
    
Dressing sense
Teacher should groom the students and should make them
aware of how to make a desirable impression.
    Body-language
It is just an important as verbal language. Everything
including the way people walk, sit, talk or eat leaves an
impact, so teachers should correct the body language of
the students if they are not doing it properly.
    Opinionated thinking
Teachers should inculcate and encourage opinion
formation in students by asking them about their opinion
on various topics in class.
