Teacher and child relationship is special as a child learns many new things from school itself. A teacher guides the child in the right direction and hence it is very important to maintain a good relationship with the teacher. For this parents should always be in touch with the teacher. They should know about the progress of their child by attending PTMs and other activities that intend to bring together parent and teachers. When a parent is in touch with the teacher, then there is a better understanding and that helps in the development of the child. If the child is weak or needs attention, then it can be done right away and this helps the child and boosts his self confidence.

Hi, it is important to know that all the teachers want their student to excel and be good in whatever they do and equally require the same support from their parents as well. Teachers need co-operation from the parents but if parent do not seem to co-operate with them, they might seem to get upset. Remember not to keep cribbing about your small issues which are sometimes unnecessary to the teacher as it may cause trouble to you or your child and even the teacher. Teacher are equally eager and prepared like you to get your children on the right track and you can tell your problems about kids to the teacher as she herself also want to hear it.

There at times where parents become extremely hyper and their emotions get high and snap at the teacher, which should absolutely be avoided as this can upset the teacher badly. It is important for us as parents to be available for our children every single time even for the smallest possible thing. Do not miss out on your children’s good and bad times, like any function or ceremony in the school. If you miss this then it might give a bad impression to the teacher who worked so hard for that behind your child but you are nowhere to appreciate it.

Sometimes some parents become over-protective about their children on really useless matters where there is no need of interfering. If your child is getting bullied at the school you need to inform the teacher and she will take the necessary action, you do not have to step into her shoes and start commanding as this might not be liked by the teacher. You can discuss it with her but not tell her to punish the child who is bullying your kid. It is the teacher’s responsibility and she will look into the matter and decide what to do.

I know as parents we have a lot of complaints about studies and school pressure. It is very annoying for the teachers when parents keep nagging about school homework and studies. One of my friend has this habit of complaining every time whenever she visited the school and this irritated the teacher which indirectly affected her child and he used to suffer because of the parents cribbing.The teacher knows how and what is exactly for your children and you cannot tell her what to do and what not. It is our responsibility to work with our child and have a proper time management for everything.
