Abstract
“This pragmatic research has the aim of showing teacher’s attitude face direct expressions used by students during the Spanish subject inside classroom in the secondary school “Luis Donaldo Colosio Murrieta” located in Atlixco, Puebla. Two Mexican teachers answered questions and expressed their attitudes face specific situations presented in DCT (Discourse Completion Test), a questionnaire used in pragmatic researches according to Kasper and Dahl (1991) cited in Nurani (2009). Four classroom observations are crucial to the adaptation of questions in DCT in order to get realer answers; these were focused on direct expressions used by students during activities inside classroom. Results show that teachers have a good attitude when facing impolite expressions used by students. Despite of students sometimes sound rude with their words teachers claim that teenager students deserve all chances to reflex on their attitude because their behavior is normal and teachers should act without affecting the learning process inside classroom. So, as conclusion teachers must learn to live together with students and to communicate in a correct way each other to achieve a productive learning as well as motivation to acquire knowledge. “
