Preventing Teacher Burnout

by Kay Allen, Ph.D.

Students’ educational success relies on energetic, creative, and dedicated teachers. Unfortunately, job burnout can result in a large number of teachers leaving the profession within the first five years of teaching. This talk will address skills and strategies which both administrators and teachers can use to identify early signs of and to prevent teacher burn out. Supervision and climate building strategies will be offered for administrators. For teachers, the specific strategies of self-monitoring, self-care, and self-management will be presented. Participants will leave the session with information and handouts that are aimed at creating and maintaining energetic and inspired teachers.

Audience: All teachers and administrators
