Abstract

For the younger generation, adults are parts of life that can be reported and that, in certain situations, they can or cannot follow. Things are even more obvious when those adults are teachers recognized by a formal qualification obtained in this sense. By their work, the teachers should transmit a set of values and by their personality they should be a model for students to follow them no matter what. The first task can be achieved during compulsory school courses, while the human qualities of the teacher can be better recognized during extracurricular activities specific for non-formal education (NFE). So for example, during various trips or school camps, teacher performs multiple roles: designed to support students: submit the significance of various visited tourist attractions, supports students in passing a certain path, or to choose adequate clothing or food, plan events and organize their program, first aid in case of medical emergencies, consulting pupils in difficulty, managing conflict situations etc. These means that, in the context of non-formal education, teacher must be both, educator, parent, doctor, counselor etc., but most importantly, to be a true friend of the student. Therefore, in this article, we intend to identify those personality characteristics that can convert an effective teacher in the classroom in a manager's performance as extracurricular activities.
