Abstract

This paper describes partial results of the research implemented by the support of the SGS-2016-063 project – Studying at the Faculty of Education as a place for forming future teacher's professional identity. It focuses on university teachers who work at the faculty of education. Their role is specific, because they also mediate the socializing function of the model for their students, future teachers. The study focuses on student assessment of personality traits and the competencies of university educators, in terms of expectation and fulfilment of this expectation. From a methodological point of view, this is a mixed research.

Keywords: Personality Traits, University Teacher, Model of the Teacher, Professional Identity
