Summary/Abstract: Professional qualifications are classified legally and are the same cross the professional spectrum. What factor determines teachers’ didactic, educational and professional aspirations and self-evaluation? Who/what determines that the teacher becomes an (anti)authority for his/her students, can instill their passion for learning or discourage them? When are a teacher’s education and qualifications of less importance than his/her competences? There are teachers for whom work is only an obligation, a duty towards the school, and education is the obligation of a student. They are teachers working with children only because it is their legal duty. But there are also teachers who teach students how to learn, instilling in them educational freedom. These are guide-teachers who reveal their students’ horizons, teaching them to choose a new knowledge that is supposed to give them satisfaction, emotional joy and practical benefits.
