A teacher is a person who helps students to acquire knowledge, competence, or virtue. Informally the role of teacher may be taken on by anyone. In most countries, teaching young people of school age is carried out in an official setting such as a school or college. A teacher's professional duties may extend beyond formal teaching. Outside the classroom teachers may accompany students on field trips, supervise study halls, help with the organization of school functions, and serve as supervisors for extracurricular activities. In some education systems, teachers may be responsible for student discipline.
