Sažetak
In today’s world, lifelong learning is a necessity, although not everyone is inclined to adapt.
Therefore, understanding the specificities of adult education is crucial. The paper deals
with five areas important for managing the teaching process in adult education. It points
out what needs attention and highlights the most important characteristics of adult learning.
Teachers play an exceptional role in adult education, because with their different
approaches to teaching and developed andragogical competencies, they can facilitate the
involvement of adults in the educational process. A teacher should be an expert in his or
her field, an advisor who sometimes gives counsel based on his or her own life and work
experience, intelligence, education or professional qualifications, a moderator who guides
discussions in a group, a motivator who encourages, supports, and inspires, an organizer
who coordinates all activities related to the teaching process, and a pedagogue who participates in the process of upbringing and education.
