        abstract = {Women and the teaching profession is a growing issue even though women have been dominating school education for a long time. Female teachers play a very important role in representing a girl childs perspectives and needs; they help create inclusive environments that promote learning, not only in schools, but also in higher educational establishments. Many a times, female students benefit from being taught by female teachers particularly when these female teachers serve as centre stereotypical role models. Female educators have a positive impact in girl students achievements, apart from their retention in schools. Female educators inspire and influence, can give the girl students, motherly care, listen to their problems and concerns, and be there for them during times of crisis. Female teachers are in a better position to represent the girl childs perspectives and needs, help create an inclusive environment that will promote learning. Beyond academic excellence, female teachers involve themselves with the students overall development, especially of the girl students. In girls school and colleges, the teachers interpersonal traits motivate the students; activate the role of students in learning. Female teachers understand the female students mental and emotional needs. In rural areas and remote villages, female students taught by female teachers are more likely to move up the academic ladder by completing high school and attending college and thereby have higher and productivity. Parents too, feel comfortable and confident for their daughters in school which is inhabited by female teachers. The girls are also driven to come to school if the teacher is a woman. Availability of women teachers in school brings a sense of security among female students. Young girls feel comfortable opening up to female teachers. They feel protected and from becoming victims of sexual abuse and exploitation. But often, women are underrepresented in leadership positions in most cities and income groups, even when the women are just as qualified as male teachers. The role of women in education cannot be underestimated. Besides being catalysts of empowerment, female educators are also forerunners of change. This paper aims to identify the role of female teachers in activating effective teaching skills and methods among female high school and college students from the teachers perspective, and the obstacles limiting the roles. Recruiting more women can be a way for government to boost the number of women who hold qualified job and promote gender equality.},
