Abstract

This is a qualitative research project focusing on four experienced teachers perspectives of why they feel some in the field of teaching become "burned out," or choose to leave to the field. For this project, an experienced teacher is one who has reached Tenure status, and is no longer considered a probationary teacher. Four participants were interviewed on a variety of issues that they felt perhaps lead to "burnout." The research also includes some possible solutions to "burnout."
