QUESTION 1 (2 ANSWERS PROVIDED)
Teaching is a profession filled with diverse stressors ranging from workload and time
constraints to meeting academic standards and dealing with parents. While the resiliency
of teachers often allows them to stay professional under pressure, there are strategies that
can enhance their ability to manage stress effectively.
Keeping a Positive Self-Image and Being Assertive
Maintaining a positive self-image is foundational for stress management. Teachers who
believe in their abilities are more likely to approach challenges with a proactive and solution-
oriented mindset rather than feeling defeated. Positive self-talk and setting realistic
expectations for oneself can significantly contribute to reducing stress levels. Similarly,
being assertive in the classroom and in interactions with colleagues and parents allows
teachers to set boundaries, which is crucial for maintaining a manageable workload and
ensuring time for self-care.
