The article deals with the problem of transformation of the role of a teacher in modern education. The emphasis is placed on the fact that modern society is characterized by the problem of redundancy of available information, in connection with which there is a need to shift the main roles of the teacher, the main of which are those that allow not to transfer knowledge, but to select the necessary/unnecessary from the available array, to captivate the learning process and a certain strategy for working with data, as well as to teach listen and hear the other. It is noted that modern education does not require and does not generate fundamentally new pedagogical roles, however, it requires a certain redistribution of roles traditionally characteristic of a teacher. As the key roles for today, the author identifies three: Stalker, Passionary and Interlocutor, analyzing the features of each of them, their significance in terms of the purpose of education and the reasons for increasing this importance in modern society, as well as the main difficulties that teachers may have in connection with the development of these roles.
