Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the lived experiences of teachers and specialists in various religious and educational sciences regarding the role of teachers in religious education in the second phase of primary school. To achieve this goal, semi-structured interviews were conducted with the teachers and the experts, and coding and categorization techniques were used to analyze the data. After the analysis, the data obtained from the interviews on teachers' roles in religious education were divided into three categories: expert and insightful, teachers' emotional relationship (as friends and guides), and the role teachers as models. Playing each of these roles requires characteristics and practices by the teachers to be effective. As an expert and insightful person, the teacher must have the required concern and mastery of religious subjects, as well as the ability to recognize and show proper practice in educational situations. Making an emotional and intimate relationship with students is also possible by showing appropriate measures such as warm and intimate conversations with students, various techniques of encouragement, humor and cheerful mood, motivation and comfortable relations. Most importantly, in order for the teachers to be considered as models for the students, there must be an acceptable balance between their speeches and behaviors.
