Abstract: Dr. Thomas Gordon’s Teacher Effectiveness Training Program has its own traditions, but at the same time offers alternative methods of communication between teacher and student that helps to establish a positive educational environment. There are too many socio-pedagogical problems that teachers encounter on a daily basis in their practice and most of them are related to problems in communicating with children, inability to overcome conflicts on both sides, deficits in family education. The workshop offers Dr. Thomas Gordon’s method for dealing with unacceptable behavior of students (learners) helps creating a productive learning environment in which lasting results are achieved. Through practical exercises and entering into different roles, set in the teaching methodology, teachers are able to respond properly to conflict situations, reduce barriers to communication, acquire alternative skills to quickly reduce stress and effectively solve problems in their pedagogical practice. The article will also analyze the results of a survey.

Keywords: unacceptable behavior, successful teachers, positive learning environment, emotional and social development.
