Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Teachers play a vital role in transmitting culture from one generation to the next, making their role in pre-service teacher education crucial. Future educators need more than just subject knowledge; they must also cultivate critical thinking, moral values, and empathy. These qualities are essential for effectively teaching students from diverse cultural backgrounds. In India, where various social cultures and individuals with differing educational levels coexist, teachers face a range of challenges in the classroom. It is important for teachers to recognize and understand these challenges to work effectively with their students. This paper highlights the educational and sociocultural obstacles teachers face, as well as the proposed remedial strategies to address these issues. Furthermore, it provides valuable insights for policymakers to help them develop strategies and policies aimed at overcoming these challenges and improving the quality of education.
