Abstract

This is a descriptive study of a teacherâ€™s perspective regarding creating and maintaining a positive teacher-student relationship with the teacherâ€™s professional experience at undergraduate levels. The study is a qualitative study involving interviews with a convenience sample selected randomly. The study was carried out with a sample size of 60 teachers from universities located in Islamabad/ Rawalpindi Pakistan. Teachers emphasized the importance of positive teacher-student relationship and concluded that such relationship increases the confidence level of the students, produces mutual respect and obedience. Findings of the interview results indicated that building a positive teacher-student relationship is a time taking process; that comes with teacherâ€™s experience and it varies with the passage of time.
