Summary/Abstract: Often the dilemma of novice teachers is related to the quality of student-teacher relationship. A good teacher is one who creates a safe and creative environment for students, which allows them to become confident and eager to learn. Thus, students will have the courage to express their emotions, personal opinions, without fear of being labelled. When students show they are “angry about a low grade” or reactions of anger/frustration towards other colleagues, that creates a situation of challenge for the beginner teacher. She or he has the chance to capitalize on both personal and professional abilities. The study presented in this article aims to identify the perception of beginning teachers regarding the management of relations with the group of students. The results fundaments a mentoring program that aimed to optimize the interaction between the beginning teacher and the students.
