Through the years, leadership has been related to education and how teachers can apply their lead in the classroom while teaching a foreign language. Throughout their career, teachers are seen as guides in reasoning, and guides in the creation of the personal project in their students’ lives. Therefore, understanding and exploring the teacher leader’s role in the educational field is important.
