What is it like being a teacher in Kenya and what about the history of Teacher Education in Kenya? Teacher and Teacher Education in Kenya forms a very important an essential component of the Kenyan education system. It clearly accounts for the current and future face of the Kenyan child and to sum it all, it influences all aspects of Kenya education, Kenyan developments in morality and even beyond. Just like many countries in Africa, Kenya is a country with diverse ethnicity and ethnic setups with many tribes living with different social cultural upbringing and beliefs and indoctrinations. In Kenya, the teacher and Teacher Education is more often than not influenced by many social, ethnical, political, economic and level technological developments depending on the level of exposure of a particular ethnic group or tribe to the western ideologies and as per what the Kenyan society has undergone. In this paper, I examine and report the emerging issues of Teacher Education in Kenya as influenced by ethnic diversity in relation to the western technological developments. A report on its implications is therefore made here on emerging issues to education, teacher and teacher related developments in this Kenya.
