JESUINO, Jorge Correia. Not easy to be teacher. Rev. Educ. Questão [online]. 2014, vol.49, n.35, pp.29-48. ISSN 1981-1802. https://doi.org/10.5238/2015v49i350003.
The role of teacher at the high-school level is examined in the conceptual models of management and leadership requiring competencies-technical in accordance to contingent requirements. Effective teaching depends on dispositional and situational features, but also on the systemic constraints on policies and pedagogical cultures. The pedagogies of the essence with humanistic vision are more vertical, whereas the pedagogies of existence are more horizontal emphasizing pedagogical personalization, respect towards the student and development of cooperation and initiative. In the Portuguese case, the system is still turbulent without find a balance and it contribute to the ambiguity of the role of teacher.
