Abstract
As the importance of education is realized by more and more people, people begin to pay attention to the factors that have an important influence on students' studies. As a factor directly related to students' individual and learning outcomes, the teacher-student relationship has been noticed and studied by people. A positive teacher-student relationship can help students in their professional learning in many ways. This paper takes the teacher-student relationship as the starting point, and synthesizes the relevant literature and research on teacher-student relationship and students' learning outcomes. Research has found that a positive teacher-student relationship can regulate students' mental emotions, improve students' participation in class, cultivate students' learning ability, and promote students' academic achievement and goals. In the end, it is suggested that teachers can be considered as listeners in mental health, leaders in academic learning and supporters in creative thinking in the relationship between teachers and students, to establish and promote positive teacher-student relationships and improve students' learning outcomes.
