Abstract

Handling human beings and especially highly educated ones is not a stress-free undertaking in any society due to the numerous whims from every single individual, which can affect negatively the process of teaching and learning no matter the country. The objective of this study is to examine fundamentally the consequences of a certain number of leadership’s vital domains of requirement simultaneous to EFL students’ performances in Benin. The research is identified through the combination of both qualitative and quantitative methods used. Teachers and students’ surveys and observation sheets have been applied to gather information about leadership’s crucial domains of responsibility importance in EFL classes. The questionnaire has been administered to 10 EFL lecturers, 7 collected, 24 EFL teachers, 15 collected, and 44 university EFL students, 33 collected, the research population is 55 with the sample size 48. 10 experienced educators have been interviewed with the sample size 10, and 6 classes observed in the target language teaching and learning context, the sample size being 6. The main results reveal the high place leadership occupies in education and especially in language teaching and more specifically in EFL teaching and learning. It can chiefly be suggested that educators recognise the unavoidable need to receive effective trainings and undergo frequent seminars and workshops in leadership so as to cope successfully with adequate management in educational centres and elsewhere.
