Islamic Interpretation
In a dream, a teacher represents a powerful individual who renders service to others, especially to those who learn from him, unless he is seen accepting payment for his teaching. An elementary school teacher symbolizes a commander, judge, scholar, or trainer. A grammar or language teacher signifies honor, dignity, elevated status, assisting others, and having strong ties with authorities or scholars. They may also represent understanding, eloquence, ease of living, profits, marriage, children, or parents. A teacher in a dream can also symbolize a bird catcher who governs the affairs of ignorant people. (Also see Educator, Engraver, Grammarian, Language, Writer)
