Formation of a teacher-choreograph’ image by means of advanced training

The problem of advanced training of the teacher-choreograph working in the educational organizations of the Russian Federation is actualized. The research of imagology is analyzed: image as the main element of the theory and practice of teachers; the urgency of the problem of imagology in the advanced training system; purposeful formation between the real image and the ideal one. The features of the professional activity and behavior of the teacher-choreograph with the new requirements for advanced training are justified. The structural components of the image of the teacher-choreograph are highlighted out and characterized: individual and personal qualities, ways of self-realization, self-esteem and self-constriction. The problem of the image of a teacher-choreograph within the pedagogical skill problem is shown. The need of creation of pedagogical theory of the image, which fundamentally explains the main directions of this phenomenon, from the point of view of modern pedagogical science is explained. Questioning of acting teachers-choreographers, heads of choreographic associations in order to identify the components of the image as a factor in the success of their professional activities is marked and reasoned.
