The teacher-student discourse represents a central aspect of the educational
process, functioning as a vehicle for knowledge transmission, cognitive development,
and social interaction. This article explores the structural features, functions, and
pedagogical implications of teacher-student discourse within classroom contexts.
Drawing on both sociolinguistic and educational frameworks, the study analyzes
common discourse patterns, turn-taking strategies, and power dynamics. Furthermore,
it assesses how discourse styles affect student engagement, critical thinking, and
learning outcomes. The findings underline the importance of adopting dialogic
teaching methods that encourage active student participation and reflective dialogue.
