Abstract: Teachers are the core of the school, and it is the foundation of every educational system. Parents worldwide are eager and anxious to find the “Best” teacher for their children. Over time, the concept of the ‘best teacher is vague. It is often measured from various aspects, such as the learning outcomes and development of autonomous learning skills of the students. However, as students enter post-secondary and higher Education, their expectations from the teachers become more heightened. A single characteristic of the teacher might not be enough to take care of students’ needs academically and psychologically. Then, based on literature and case studies in similar areas of the study, this short review article argues that on the diversified practice of teachers’ roles to stimulate students’ internal motivation. The discussions and findings are based on different theoretical interpretations of teachers’ comprehensive multi-role literacy; when teachers face different students with diversified tasks, including the time outside of the classroom, and flexibly change their roles, providing emotional Scaffolding for the students. The essay concludes by highlighting the trade-offs between roles to provide optimal guidance for the students to motivate their internal learning motivation.
