The article substantiates the main directions in the development of the problem concerning consciousness humanization of future teachers as a factor of preparing them for child guidance and upbringing. It is determined that a return to traditional values which focused on the Christian worldview in the context of idealistic Christian approach to upbringing indicates the development of the dual nature of man (that has a body and a soul), the priority of morality and recognition of these tendencies as a component of the integral system, which creates conditions for the formation of personal self-awareness and self-fulfilment of young people. It is taken into account that the orientation of the process of humanization of the future teacher’s consciousness towards the idealistic Christian approach to education presupposes recognition of the latter as the basis for the formation of value orientations, characterized primarily by the awareness of the Christian essence of man, recognition of the priority of morality, emphasis on respect towards a person, the formation of one’s spiritual world, aspiration to achieve perfection, implementation of moral virtues in practice, rethinking and believing in the need to focus information on the ideals of the good, and so on.

The directions of humanization of the future teacher’s consciousness (in preparation for child guidance and upbringing) are: implementation of a personality-oriented approach to personality upbringing, taking into account individual features of the future teachers, their creative ideas, formation of the ability to interact with children; creating a well-organized environment, ensuring a successful child socialization as a mechanism of upbringing, prompt adjustment of the process of upbringing, as well as a practical implementation of the individual’s relationship with the environment, creating conditions for independence and activity of higher education students, focusing on the national traditions, free choice of life outlook, religious affiliation, value orientations, everything that characterizes humanization as self-humanization.

It is emphasized that the process of socialization of the personality as a process of development of one’s social capabilities (coexistence in society, establishing relationships with people) in preparation for guardianship and upbringing becomes valuable if its consciousness is freed from social myths and illusions, and the value orientations are filled with the content which presupposes cultural assimilation of the reality and provides the main purpose of human life, shapes a person’s spiritual principles to live by. The specifics of socialization as a mechanism of upbringing is defined by external social influences that acquire a certain personal meaning, and specific social phenomena – the formation of personal qualities, social needs, orientations, social activity – and personal values determine one’s inner world, while the quality teacher training (higher education students) for child guidance and upbringing involves providing optimal conditions for professional self-development, self-awareness, self-fulfilment, personal growth. The process of humanization of a person’s consciousness means not only the cultural assimilation of reality but also the priorities of values, which provide real humane relationships with other people, the embodiment of spiritual and moral values as the most important factors in human life.
