Louanne Johnson, Dangerous Minds
One of Michelle Pfeiffer's biggest hits had her playing a former marine who becomes an inner city high school teacher.

Ken Carter, Coach Carter
Samuel L. Jackson hits the list again as a basketball coach who returns to his alma mater to become the new basketball coach and makes it clear to his players that there is life after basketball. He makes them sign a detailed contract which includes keeping their grades at a certain level. Despite their first winning season, when a couple of the players grades begin to slip, Carter puts a lock on the gym doors until the guys get their grades up.

Miss Shields, A Christmas Story
An actress I've never seen anywhere else named Tedde Moore carved herself a niche in cinema history with her beautifully underplayed role of the teacher who assigns Ralphie (Peter Billingsley) his ultimate theme and stands by Flick (Scott Schwartz) during his encounter with a telephone pole.

Veronica Vaughn, Billy Madison
Bridgette Wilson-Sampras was pretty much sex on legs as the third grade teacher of Billy (Adam Sandler) who falls instantly in love with her.

Mr. Hall, Clueless
Wallace Shawn was very funny as the smart-assed debate teacher who has frighteningly little control over his class.

Mr. Miyagi, The Karate Kid
Pat Morita received an Oscar nomination for his performance as a mild mannered handyman who is also a karate master, sharing his skill with a young man (Ralph Macchio) being seriously bullied, in one of the biggest surprise hits of 1984.

Ms. Rain, Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire
Paula Patton was impressive as the sympathetic teacher to the title character (Gabourey Sidibe), the sad and slightly high school student and mother of one with another on the way.

#23. Interesting. One of my favorite movies, but I didn't expect Mr. Miyagi to show up on this list. I thought it was confined to school teachers (and remember the "Miyagi-Do" karate school was contrived at the last minute so Daniel could enter the tournament). 
But he was a sensei, so yes, he was a teacher.
But Rex Kwon-Do was also a sensei...

Richard Dadier, Blackboard Jungle
One of the first and most famous "white teacher in an inner city school" movies...Glenn Ford plays Dadier, a new teacher trying to find the best form of discipline for some troublesome students. Some of Dadier's students were played by future stars Sidney Poitier, Vic Morrow, and Jamie Farr.
