| metadata.dc.description.other-abstract: | Teachers’ resilience is the ability of teachers to overcome difficulites and recover quickly in the face of problems and difficulties, and even to seek development from difficult situations. This study aimed 1) to examine the aspects of resilience of effective high school English language teachers and 2) to explore how they cope with the difficulties and challenges in their jobs. The study adopted a mix-methods approach. By using Krejcie and Morgan formula to calculate the sample size, 30 teachers were selected from a population of 36 high school English language teachers at an international school in China to fill out the questionnaires, while 8 teachers were the semi-structured interviewees. Quantitative data and qualitative data analysis methods (Desctiptive statistics and Litchman’s 3 Cs framework) were adopted. Semi-structured interview results indicated that they needed to have pride of being a teacher, creative problem-solving solutions, positive attitude at work and continuous development of their teaching activity through life-long learning as significance to develop teachers’ resilience. Recommendations for enhancement of high school English language teachers’ resilience are: firstly, the teachers must be aware of the difficulities they face and secondly, schools, peers and family members should find ways to support them. |
