Exploring the Characteristics of a Good Teacher-Leader in Moroccan EFL Contexts

The present research study has attempted to present insight into the evaluation and perspectives of Moroccan EFL students toward the characteristics of a good teacher as a leader. The codes of the good teacher as a leader that have come out in this study had two broad categories: 1) Skills category and 2) Affective category. The questionnaire has been used in an attempt to collect data for the study. Four days were spent collecting data. The population sample for the study is 60 EFL students (27 males and 33 females) across three levels of study (1, 2, and 3 years). All the subjects have filled in the questionnaire. The data has been analyzed using the SPSS and Excel packages, employing the statistical tool of frequencies and percentages to tally up the most frequent category. The results indicated differences in weight as far as students' appreciation of a good teacher as a leader was concerned. The result reported that items that belonged to the affective category attracted more weight.
