Building
a teacher-student relationship is important for creating trust, mutual
understanding and respect. The interaction of teacher and students can be found
using the 48-item Questionnaire on Teacher Interaction. The result is the Model
for Interpersonal Teacher Behavior, consisting of four dimensions, which are
further divided into eight sectors to evaluate the teacher. The main goal of
our study was to show how the teacher and students perceive the environment of
the class, whether their views match, and whether it is a statistical
significant dependence among different sectors of the model teacher-students
interaction. The sample size consisted of 63 Slovak students of 12th grade and
their teacher of biology. Our results have shown that the teacher has evaluated
herself similarly to the students, but without a statistical significant
difference. In monitoring of the relationship of scales in the whole group of
respondents, in the group of male and female respondents we showed
statistically significant differences between the sectors. Using of
Questionnaire on Teacher Interaction can help mutual knowing of students and
teachers and the creation of positive relationships.
