Rationale
Teaching is a profession that requires a lot of hard work on the part of
teachers in order to ensure that the learning goals or objectives are met at the
end of the day or semester. However, a teacher’s job does not end with only
teaching. As stated in DepED Memorandum No. 291 s. 2008, teachers are also
expected to perform tasks beside rendering six hours of teaching. They also
have to prepare lesson plans, manage misbehaviors, attend seminars, consult
parents, coach students including home visits, and others. Aside from the
professional responsibilities, teachers have other tasks they have to attend to.
As stated by Tan (2017), teachers also have to attend to their family, social life
and other commitments. Thus, it is no denying that teaching is indeed a very
stressful job to handle.
As noble as it is, teaching is considered as one of the most stressful jobs
one can work for. According to the report conducted by Worth, Lynch, Hillary,
Rennie, & Andrade (2018), teachers experience more stress than other workers.
According to Ansley, McPhee, Meyer, & Varjas (2018), stress is a threat that
negatively affects the teachers’ well-being and is also experienced at a high
level everyday by nearly half of all teachers. Thus, the paper aims to study the
factors affecting teachers stress and the coping strategies of Cotabato City
State Polytechnic College Faculty.
