Assessing teacher’s effectiveness will not be a straightforward attempt by solely examining students’achievements or students’ perceptions of their teachers’ attributes. A careful examination of the teaching concepts, one as a form of “labor and profession”(Firestone & Bader, 1991); or the other as a “craft and art”(Grimmett & MacKinnon, 1992) will indicate that it involves teacher’s cognitive ability and interpersonal skills (soft skills) which enhance teacher’s performance in the classroom. Furthermore, the National Framework for Professional Standards (MCEETYA, 2003)  \nhas outlined that teacher’s professional value (quality and  \nprofessional knowledge and skills) will impact the management of  \nstudent’s learning. Based on these concepts, this study investigated a  \nteacher effectiveness model. The framework of this investigation  \nmeasured the teacher’s cognitive ability (skills of assessment and  \nevaluation, IT skills, and co-curricular knowledge) and the teacher’s personality or interpersonal skills (soft skills). The respondents were experienced teachers working in Malaysia. A set of questionnaires  \nwith 120 questions were constructed by the researchers and were  \nadministered among 2000 school teachers from different types of schools. However, only 1366 completed questionnaires were analyzed while 634 responses were removed due to incomplete data. Utilizing structural equation model (SEM), this study attempted to ascertain the validity of the structural model of which teacher’s cognitive abilities and personalities predict teacher’s performances. The results revealed a model fit with both cognitive abilities and personality predicting  \nclassroom management. Good personality alone, however, is  \ninsufficient in terms of enhancing the teachers’ commitment and  \nresponsibilities towards their students unless it is complemented by  \nthe teachers’ cognitive competency (cognitive abilities)  \nIntroduction  \nMalaysian teachers are aware of the global challenges especially in preparing themselves to achieve the goal of the National Education Philosophy (NEP) .
