Popis: The high academic optimism levels of the teachers affect the success of the students positively. The most important characteristics of schools with high academic success is the high optimism levels.

Thus, the dimensions of the teaching styles and academic optimism have been compared. This study has the model of relational screening. The study examined the level of explanation of the academic optimism in the schools by the teaching styles preferred by the teachers. The dependent variable of the study is the academic optimism perception of the teachers and the schools. The independent variable is the sizes of the teaching styles. The study group consisted of 323 middle school teachers in total selected from 13 schools by means of random cluster sampling and who were working in province of Konya in 2016. “School Academic Optimism Scale” developed by Coban and Demirtas (2011) and the “Grasha-Reichmann Teaching Style Scale” adapted to Turkish by Saritas and Sural (2010) were used as the data collection tool. The relation between the academic optimism and sizes scores of the teachers and the teaching style sizes were tested with Pearson correlation technique. The level of the significant explanation of the teaching styles preferred by the teachers as well as their academic optimism size scores were tested with the multiple regression technique. A significant relation has been found between the scores of the teaching styles preferred by the teachers and their total academic optimism scores. It can be suggested that attention shall be focused on the lifelong training of the teachers in order to develop the academic optimism feelings of the teachers.
