dc.description.abstract	This research project explored the dynamic interplay between teacher-student relationships and academic performance. Recognizing the pivotal role of educators in shaping the learning environment, the study investigated the impact of both positive and negative teacher-student interactions on students' engagement, motivation, and academic achievements. Utilizing a mixed method approach, data was gathered through surveys, interviews, and academic record analysis. Preliminary findings suggested a strong correlation between positive teacher-student relationships characterized by open communication, mutual respect, and supportive behaviors and improved academic outcomes. Conversely, negative interactions were found to detrimentally affect student motivation and performance. The study aimed to provide valuable insights for educators, administrators, and policymakers to enhance educational practices and foster a conducive learning environment.The study found a strong correlation between positive teacher-student relationships characterized by open communication, mutual respect, and supportive behaviors, and improved academic outcomes.
