| Summary: | The present study explains the cause of "burnout" among teachers and offers the author's model for its diagnosis. Burnout syndrome can easily be called a "modern teacher's disease" due to the fact that it mainly affects the professional group of teachers. In the present study we aim to present a brief analysis of the problem and to offer a methodology for diagnosing and self-diagnosing "burnout" among teachers. The relevance of the research is related to the teachers` high workload of and the problem of the aging teachers, who often complain of exhaustion, lack of motivation, unwillingness to work. This raises the question of the specific working conditions that lead to diseases of the professional group of teachers. For this reason it is necessary to periodically take measures for the prevention of "burnout" syndrome. |
