The teacher's role is very important in the social, emotional, and academic achievement of children. The sample was collected from Hyderabad schools in January 2018. This study was performed on a total sample of 500 students. Sample was justified through A-priori sample size calculator. Respondents range in age range from 10 to 18 years (Mean = 13.49 years, SD = 1.33). Three questionnaires were employed to collect the data.

Regression analysis survey has been used in the present study. The result of the regression analysis revealed that students who tended to perceive themselves to be accepted by their teacher reported high self-esteem.
