Michel Sarpamones | Dhan Timothy Ibojo

Discipline: psychology (non-specific)

 

Abstract:

The primary objective of this study was to explore the stories and experiences of English teachers shifting careers. The study was conducted in Davao de Oro. A multiple case study was employed and purposive sampling was utilized in selecting the three participants. Moreover, the researcher adhered to the following criteria: (a) Who are willing to share their stories (b) Who graduated as BSED English major (c) Who are passers of LET (d) Who shifted careers. As part of the ethical consideration, the identities of the three participants were kept confidential and anonymous. The findings of the study revealed that the experiences encountered by the participants related to teaching were Worthwhile, Enjoyable, and Tricky and complicated. The challenges encountered by the participants related to teaching were Time management, and Catching students’ Interest. The reasons of moving away from English teaching were Health Condition, Salary Wise, and to have stable job. The insights they developed were to Teaching the Noblest Profession, Finding it Necessary for Further Education, and Establish Understanding with Others.
