Based on the data used, the study concluded that: 1.Female teachers performed substantially better than male teachers on both transformational and transactional leaderships. 2.Female teachers showed higher degree of “perceived teacher support” while male teachers show higher degree of “perceived teacher control”. 3.Teachers with over 11-year of teaching experience were obviously much better than teachers with 6- to 10-year of teaching experience on the leadership and the management of classroom. 4.The experience and the gender of a teacher had no effect on students’ achievement motivation. 5.Teachers performed better on transformational leadership, the classroom atmosphere would be better and the students’ achievement motivation would be higher. 6.If teachers applied contingent-reward and active-intervention-management techniques, the classroom atmosphere would be better and the students’ achievement motivation would be higher. 7.The better the classroom atmosphere was, the higher the students’ achievement motivation would be. 8.Teacher transformational and transactional leadership as well as classroom atmosphere had substantial influence on achievement motivation of students.
