Abstract:
This paper explores the portrayal of teacher-student relationships in educational films and examines their implications for contemporary educational practices. Through a review of narrative patterns and analysis of representative films from diverse cultural contexts, the study highlights how cinematic depictions emphasize empathy, trust, and transformation as core elements of effective teaching. While these narratives provide inspiration for fostering creativity and individualized attention in real classrooms, they also tend to oversimplify complex educational realities by focusing on heroic teachers and rapid student change. The paper concludes with reflections on how educators and policymakers can responsibly integrate insights from film narratives to promote more humane, inclusive, and equitable education, and suggests directions for future research on media influence and cross-cultural comparisons.
