Abstract

Burnout remains a significant challenge for teachers, yet the struggles of part-time staff are often overlooked. Teaching is a demanding profession, and constant stress can harm both physical and mental health, leading to exhaustion, anxiety, and depression. This study examined in depth how part-time teachers experience burnout and how they manage stress. Using a semi-structured interview guide with seven (7) participants, the study found that burnout stems mainly from job instability, lack of recognition, and pressure to handle multiple responsibilities. Teachers shared coping strategies, including time management, mindfulness, social support, and faith-based practices. While these personal methods help reduce stress, they do not address deeper systemic problems. The study highlights the need for schools to provide better working conditions, mental health support, and a more inclusive environment to promote teacher well-being.
