image_path to database

[vhs9210]

hi! to everyone!!. I am new in prestashop 1.6, actually I am starting developing simple applications, adding some menus like "teacher" in the backoffice, It has just the basic information, (name, address and telephone) but also has an photo_path field, which allows me to upload an image, I've created a (type ='file') and it allows to upload it, ok but the problem is when I want to store the image_path to my database in the field photo_path, I used this code in my teachersController.php

if (Tools::isSubmit('submitAddteacher')) {
            if ($_FILES["photo_path"]["name"]) {
            $imgName = $this->getImageName( Tools::getValue('id_teacher') );
            
            $temp = explode(".", $_FILES["photo_path"]["name"]);
            $extension = end($temp);
            $imgName.= ".".$extension;
            
            $this->insertTeacherImage( Tools::getValue('id_teacher'), $imgName );
            ImageManager::resize($_FILES["teacher"]["tmp_name"], _PS_IMG_DIR_."Teacher/".$imgName , 219 , 219);
            chmod(_PS_IMG_DIR_."Teacher/".$imgName, 0777);
            }        
      }  

and in the header:

  
        $this->fieldImageSettings = array(
            'name' => 'photo_path',
            'dir' => "Teacher"
        );

and it save the image into the directory Teacher in /img/Teacher and also rename the image with a simple number like "15.jpg", but it is not saving the image_path into my database, in my class Teacher.php I defined :

    public $photo_path;
public static $definition = array(
        'table' => 'teacher',
        'primary' => 'id_teacher',
        'fields' => array(
                'photo_path' =>     array('type' => self::TYPE_STRING, 'required' => true, 'size' => 32),

but when I do this, when i fill the form and upload the image shows me an error "photo_path is empty". please help me.
