In Viz's English adaptation,
they've translated "sensei"
as "master"... Why? Who knows. |

Iruka : Naruto's first Sensei at the Ninja Academy. Iruka's parents were killed fighting the Nine Tails, which Naruto has sealed inside of him. Even though Iruka knows this, he doesn't treat him like the other villagers do. Iruka is the first person to acknowledge Naruto's existence and is the closest thing to a father or older brother he has. |

Kakashi : Naruto's second Sensei as a Genin. He passes Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura's three-man team and trains them to become Chuunin. He too knows what Naruto really is, but doesn't hold it against him. He knows the boy's potential as a Ninja is great and seems like he's not really letting us in on everything he knows... |

Jiraiya : Naruto's third Sensei. Naruto doesn't know this self proclaimed super-pervert is really one of the legendary San-nin until well into his tutelage. Jiraiya is more of a slacker than Kakashi, but while Kakashi is off training Sasuke to control the curse seal, Jiraiya takes the time to help Naruto control the Nine Tails' chakra. He also gives him a contract with which he can summonin nin-toads. |
