The television worldwide is used as a major means for entertainment, as it is used for the display of movies, football matches and daily news amongst others. Most often, those seen on television screens, be it movie stars, football stars, news and program presenters are often largely admired and could easily be modelled. The television alongside the social media has attracted the attention of the young and the growing and that of the society at large towards such professions which are brandished on television screens or on various social media plat forms. Though the presence of the massive social media networks and other media forums, the teacher and the Teaching Profession is hardly talked of as it is left lying low. With the upsurge of the tele teaching programs which came to fill the lacuna caused by the seizure of regular classes due to the outbreak of the Corona Virus (COVID 19) pandemic, teachers were then brought to the limelight of the Nation as parents, students, stake holders and the society at large were glued to their TV screens in order to follow up the lessons and for those who left school long time ago to feel what the classroom is all about again from a distance. This study thus set out to determine the effect of tele teaching on the Society's new look of the teacher and the teaching profession. This was assessed via three aspects which are; students' drive towards embracing the teaching profession, the value teachers had for themselves and the teaching profession, and the way workers who are not teachers then looked and considered teachers and the teaching profession after the tele teaching program. The study made use of the descriptive survey research design within the qualitative research paradigm. A total of 400 students were used for the study, selected through the proportionate simple random sampling technique from various secondary and high schools, 80 teachers selected by simple random sampling technique and 60 workers who are non teachers also selected by the simple random sampling technique. The instruments used for data collection were a questionnaire for students, teachers and non teachers. The reliability of these instruments were ascertained using inter rater reliability method, and the reliability indices of the three instruments were 0.82, 0.85 and 0.79 respectively, and the validity of the instrument was ascertained by verifying both face validity and content validity of the instruments. The data collected was analysed by thematic analysis backed by discourse analysis. The findings of the study revealed that because of the tele teaching program, students desire more to embrace the teaching. Also, the tele teaching program gave teachers a new impetus in the way they see and regard their profession. Still, the tele teaching program also increased the value workers of other works of life had towards the teaching profession. In general, the tele teaching program has given the society as a whole a more positive look on the teacher and the teaching profession. It was recommended that tele teaching programs should be regularly organized in order to constantly make the public see the value of the teachers and also to keep the teacher's self esteem afloat.
