(2019)Quantity of male teachers and boys’ outcomes of learning have been declining internationally. There has been pressure to add male teachers and improve boys’ learning outcomes in the field as well as in the public. The study focuses on scientific articles published between 2010 and 2017 on the effects of teacher’s gender on students’ outcomes of learning in mathematics and native language. The study was conducted as a literary review. The selected scientific articles were published in the 2010’s and studied learning outcomes of fairly wealthy countries. Articles had to study outcomes of learning in at least mathematics or native language. I divided the results in two categories, based on the teacher’s gender alone and based on the gender match or mismatch of teachers and students gender. Based on my analysis the gender of the teacher has no effect on the outcomes of learning in either of the cases. Though two articles raised exeptions, where pupils of female teachers had better outcomes of learning in both mathematics and native language, the effect however was miniscule.
