Our present article aim is to present a part of our research about the teaching ethics under the idea of being a stable dimension of teaching professionalism. Calling, work engagement, autonomy, responsibility are revealed to be the main components of a Personal Moral Professionality; these topics are related and discussed under the perspective of existence a professional personality of each teacher. Our study suggests that universities and schools like learning and professional organizations could promote teachers ethos and contribute to the development of a Teaching Applied Ethics and, in the end, of an active Personal Moral Professionality.
