subject

description

The educational institutions in many countries are faced with the  major problem of teacher burnout causing  high rates of  attrition and absenteeism. There is widespread agreement among researchers that  teacher burnout can effectively be countered through emphasis on  teacher motivation.  This article is about a 2-year qualitative research carried out by an English language teacher who focused on how to cope successfully with potential burnout conditions through a mutually reinforcing cycle of teacher and student motivation activated by the implementation of a Postmethod  emotion-focused pedagogical framework and the emphasis on the quality of life in the English classroom.
