This article describes the basic humanistic ideas and traditions of forming the image of the teacher in the national thought of Russia at the beginning of XX century. We analyzed the most important work of Russian scientists who worked abroad: S.I. Gessen and V.V. Zenkovsky. They were uncovered new basic ideas that were the basis for constructing a new, for those times, image of the teacher. The most important was the analysis of traditions in shaping the image of teachers; this is humanism, sacrifice, dedication and a high level of education. As a conceptual basis for creating the image of the “new” teacher highlighted the ideas of humanism, good relations between teacher and student, and new activity theory. The problem of forming the image of the teacher was important for the Russian pedagogical thought of the beginning of XX century. It was an era of change. These new ideas become useful for the modernization of modern education and the formation of a new image of the teacher today.
