Introduction

The students in the school:
The students in my school have several emotional and behavioral problems and my school has few economic resources - can good relationships really helps?
Teacher student relationships contribute to student's resiliency. Often, we assume that hard-to-change factors such as class size, teacher experience or availability of instructional supplies are crucial for predicting students achievement. In fact, these factors are not as important as positive relationships.
in one study almost, 4000 poor and minority children, the presence of positive relationships the teachers and the experience of positive and orderly school environment in elementary and middle school were strong predictors of gains in mathematics outcomes-much stronger then class size, teacher experience, or availability of instructional supplies.In another study, urban high school students with behavior and emotional problems were assigned to an intervention involving weekly interaction with teachers, monthly calls to the students at home and increase praise from adults. Studies like this point to an important message: across ages and in virtually all classrooms, students will be more engaged and motivated if teachers meet students essential need for social connection.
