The aim of this thesis is to describe how basic school pupils imagine their ideal English teacher. The thesis is divided into two parts - theoretical and empirical. The theoretical part discusses the teacher's personality, professional requirements, communication and interaction in the lesson, evaluation of pupils and the typology of teachers. It is also interested in the prestige, the causes of feminization of the teaching profession and the process of building up the authority. The final chapter analyses from different points of view whether an ideal English teacher really exists. The empirical part is based on a qualitative study. The pupils were asked to write an essay, called "How do you imagine the ideal teacher of a foreign language?". Their answers are analysed and compared with existing hypotheses. The results of the research also discover whether and how the pupils' ideas are different in relation to their age.
