Abstract. Leadership skills play a crucial role in improving the effectiveness of
language teaching among youth. In modern educational contexts, teachers are not only
knowledge transmitters but also leaders who inspire, guide, and motivate learners. This
article explores how leadership qualities such as communication, adaptability,
emotional intelligence, and decision-making contribute to better language learning
outcomes. By fostering a supportive and engaging classroom environment, educators
with strong leadership skills can enhance student participation, confidence, and overall
language proficiency. The study highlights the importance of integrating leadership
development into teacher training programs to meet the evolving needs of young
learners in a globalized world.
