On the basis of analysis of scientific sources, the levels of implementation of research projects by the teacher (empirical-intuitive, research-logical and scientificintuitive) are described. On the basis of the analysis of the results of the diagnostic phase of experimental work, conducted among representatives of Ukrainian scientific and pedagogical schools (graduate students of pedagogical specialties, PhDs and doctors of pedagogical sciences on the one hand and teachers of schools, colleges, university teachers of same levels of accreditation on the other) the professional, research and personal groups of the characteristics of the teacher-researcher are distinguished and briefly analyzed. All categories of participants agree that the main characteristics of the teacher-researcher are: creativity, professionalism and readiness for self-improvement.
