Authority of Educators: Essence, Structure, Forming Stages

Summary/Abstract: In the article, on the basis of analysis of different approaches to the understanding of essence of pedagogical authority, the structure, types, principles and stages of forming of authority of a class teacher as a coordinator of educating process are determined. The authority of an educator is explained as relatively steady emotionally-valued attitude of students toward a teacher in which in some degree trust, respect and admiration are combined. The analysis of quality distinctions between sympathy and respect has led to the determination of two types of pedagogical authority, one of which is based mainly on liking and gratitude, the other is based on respect and confession.
