Abstract

The quality of education depends on the teachers. A teacher occupies an improvement and unique role in any educational system. It is the teacher who implements all the programmes and policies of education to make it successful and prepare the manpower for tomorrow's India. No system of education can rise above the level of its teachers. The role of the present day teachers has become very challenging, complex and multifaceted so that this profession becomes one of the most unattractive profession. Teaching process up to a large extent and is directly proportional to the attitude towards teaching and job satisfaction of the teachers. A favorable attitude makes the work not only easier but also more satisfying. An unfavorable or negative attitude on the other hand makes the teaching work harder, more tedious and unpleased. Thus, job satisfaction of the teacher is necessary for teaching success and overall advancement of the education.
