Self-Management for Teachers
Teachers face stressors from many sources. Too much work and not enough
time. Attending to their students’ needs. Dealing with parents. Pressure to
meet academic standards. The list goes on.
Most teachers have the sense to keep their cool and do what they can to get
through the day while staying professional. There are times when that is
difficult. Sometimes we feel on the verge of totally losing it. But there are
strategies teachers can use to manage stress, triggers, time and feel more in
control in the classroom. (By Peyton, 2021)
1.1. Critically analyse and discuss the possible coping strategies for
handling stress. (10 marks)
Stress management: It is one of the emotionally intelligent behaviours that need to
be determined, and educators must be more aware of the causes and consequences
of stress. It is essential that educators learn to cope with stress. Stress-relieving
techniques have to be investigated and put into practice to prevent stress from
reaching levels that inhibit the educator’s functioning and damage their health.
There are many coping strategies for handling stress. The most important first step
is to decide whether you need professional help or whether self-help is enough
(Minnaar & De Kock 2003: 54). According to Joseph (2000: 119–120), you should
consider all of the following points when managing your stress:
It is important at all times to keep a positive self-image and not engage in
negative self-fulfilling prophecies.
Make time and use it wisely for forward planning to anticipate, innovate and
excel.
Whenever you attempt a new method of coping with stress, identify the
successful and unsuccessful elements of the strategy.
Recognise the true and relevant sources of stress and not simply the often
wrongly assumed source.
