Education is a social process by which knowledge is
transmitted to the pupils through the intermediaries
namely the teachers. It occurs through non-formal and
formal systems.. All formal systems are based on the
classroom teaching. "The destiny of India is being
shaped in her classroom", has been rightly pointed out
bytheIndianEducationCommission(IEC)1964-66and
hence it may safely be advocated that the destiny of
our nations being shaped by the teachers. According
to theAmerican Education Commission, the qualityof
the nation depends upon the qualityof its citizens. The
quality of its citizens depends, not exclusively, but in
critical measure upon the quality of their education.

upon the quality of teachers.

standing the childrens' emotions and their causes, the
capability of effectively regulating these emotions in
oneself and in others and most importantly being able

problemsolving,beingcreativeanddealingwithsocial
situations. Aneffectiveteacherwithhisintegrated and

In all, from the above discussion Table 1 and Table 2 it
is concluded that the student teachers who are extro-
verts are better than introverts and ambiverts with re-
gard to their teacher effectiveness and also there is no
significant difference in teacher effectiveness among
extroverts and ambiverts and also between ambiverts
and introverts.Therefore, it isrecommendedthatthere
is a need to develop open mindedness among the stu-
dent teachers as to enable them to be very open and
frank teachers which ultimately results in their teacher
effectiveness which in turn helps in successful learn-
ing achievement among their pupils.
