How to login from 2 different tables?

I suggest that unless you want to learn about multiple guards, that you have one table for users and a column to designate them teacher or student.

But if you want to go down the multiple table route, then;

My suggestion is to make new table called "user_master" and store your crendetial fields like email, password etc...

add one "user_type" field in user_master table to define the user type (like student and teacher).

so this makes a common login form for both user (student and teacher).

when any user authenticate then match that credential with user_master table, after that you identify the user by its "user_type" field and redirect to perticular screen.

Why go to the hassle of changing the name of the users table. It just causes more work for no benefit.

Everyone accessing your application is a user. Simple.

@SNAPEY - In each tables there would be differen columns. And in some point I have to show a single teacher how many studens has. In this way I can find out from 2 tables. And I will display this students belog to this teacher.

but if I create a user table and show them with user_type (teacher , student), is here any way to put on display that how many students are there for a teacher?
