Abstract
Building a good cooperative relationship with teachers is very critical for school counselors’ activities. However, this cannot be easily accomplished by merely learning concrete measures of how to construct cooperation, for organic and interactive relationships with teachers are deeply involved in the process of this construction. In this study, therefore, we conducted interviews on school counselors to examine how they actually build cooperation with teachers in educational sites. As a result of analyzing the interview data using Modified Grounded Theory Approach, it indicated that while school counselors undergo mental conflicts from the sense of deviation, they are also trying to build cooperation with teachers through the process of preparation, inhibition, trials and errors, reconstruction and practice of construction. In addition, it shows that school counselors need to understand the roles and personalities of teachers in order to build good cooperation with them.
