How forms.ModelForm get actual model in forms.py?

This is my models.py

class Student(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
    email = models.EmailField(max_length=50, blank=True)
    ids = models.CharField(max_length=20)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.ids

class Teacher(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=50)
    subject = models.CharField(max_length=50)
    department = models.CharField(max_length=50)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.name

This is my forms.py

from django import forms
from django.contrib.auth.forms import UserCreationForm
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from .models import Student, Teacher

class Rform(UserCreationForm):
    class Meta:
        model = User
        fields = ['first_name', 'last_name', 'username', 'email', 'password1', 'password2']

class Tform(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Teacher
        fields = '__all__'

class Istudent(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = Student
        fields = '__all__'

In this forms.py every class inheritance forms.ModelForm we are not declare model name in each class but every class show rightly model field in every form how?
