ABSTRACT
This research paper explores the impact of teacher professional development (PD) on student academic achievement. Professional development enhances teaching practices, content knowledge, and classroom management strategies, fostering a dynamic and supportive learning environment. The study examines key components such as evidence-based teaching practices, collaboration, differentiation, and data-informed instruction that contribute to improved student performance. Findings indicate that when teachers continuously engage in PD, their confidence, adaptability, and ability to address diverse learner needs significantly improve, leading to positive academic outcomes. The role of mentorship, personalized learning approaches, and effective classroom management is highlighted as crucial for maximizing instructional effectiveness. The study underscores the importance of sustained PD programs in fostering a culture of learning and growth for both teachers and students.
Keywords: Teacher professional development, student academic achievement, teaching practices, educational impact, classroom management, evidence-based instruction.
