This document discusses the roles of teachers as counselors. It defines counselors as trained practitioners who help people through short or long-term guidance. Teachers' counseling roles include collecting student information through formal tests and informal observations, identifying student problems like conflicts, lack of skills or career information, and helping students adjust, make decisions, and solve learning problems by referring them to school counselors and cooperating with parents. Student misbehavior can stem from biological, social, and environmental factors like genetics, bullying, or trauma.
