Abstract

The study's major purpose was to assess English instructors' attitudes toward teaching and their influence on students' achievement at the upper secondary level. The research was descriptive in nature. All upper secondary schools in the district Kohat were included in the study's population. As a sample, male and female English teachers from all upper secondary schools were chosen. Questionnaire and results (session 2018-2019) of students were used as research instruments, keeping objectives of the study in mind for data collection. The data was analyzed by using factor analysis, individual correlation analysis and multi group correlation analysis. The study's findings revealed that English teachers had a positive attitude regarding other aspects of their profession. The findings also demonstrated that when gender was taken into account, there were some significant disparities in attitude scores among English teachers. Particularly, females had higher attitude scores than males towards general attitude and factors like academics, administration, co-curricular, and social-psychological.
