- Title
Fostering Caring Relationships Between High School Students and Teachers: A Role for School Counselors.
- Authors
Auger, Richard W.; Jeffrey, Aaron J.
- Abstract
Consultation with teachers is an important role for school counselors, and knowing more about the nature of caring student-teacher relationships can help them in that role. This article describes a study in which 14 high school students and five high school teachers discussed factors that impact student-teacher relationships in separate focus group discussions. Both factors that foster and impede the development of student-teacher relationships were explored. Open and axial coding of data indicated that students valued teacher characteristics including fairness, authenticity, and quality teaching. Teachers reported experiencing their own vulnerabilities and constraints. Implications for school counselors are presented.
