Teacher Burnout
Teacher burnout is a state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged stress in the teaching profession. It often results from high workloads, lack of support, and challenging classroom environments. Symptoms can include fatigue, irritability, and a decreased sense of accomplishment, which can negatively impact both teachers and their students.
This phenomenon can lead to high turnover rates in schools, affecting the quality of education. Addressing teacher burnout is essential for maintaining a healthy learning environment and ensuring that educators remain motivated and effective in their roles. Support systems and professional development can help mitigate these challenges.
