Several factors affecting teachers' mental health

1. The workload survey found that 60% of teachers think the workload is too heavy, ranking first among all problems; 64% teachers think that taking a vacation is the happiest thing in life before giving bonuses and being praised by leaders. In addition to normal teaching work, such as preparing lessons, attending lectures and correcting a large number of students' homework, teachers have to undertake many complicated non-teaching tasks, such as maintaining discipline, managing students' duty, hygiene and exercises. The survey also found that teachers with heavy workload, such as head teachers, main course teachers, graduating class teachers, junior and senior high school teachers, have many mental health problems and great occupational pressure.

2. The pressure of entering a higher school found in the survey that 33% of teachers think that the pressure of entering a higher school is the biggest heart disease for teachers; 24% teachers think that students' unsatisfactory exam results are the biggest setback in life; 47% of teachers think that students' excellent exam results are the happiest thing in life. All these data show that the pressure of entering a higher school is an important source of teachers' mental health problems. The pressure of entering a higher school also intensifies the competition among colleagues and becomes another important source of teachers' psychological contradictions.

3. According to the survey of economic situation, 50% of the teachers are living in a bit of poverty. Especially unmarried, under 40 years old, junior high school or male teachers' economic situation is even less ideal. Male teachers, young teachers and class teachers are relatively dissatisfied with their economic income. Teachers think that income does not match labor.

4. Evaluation of leaders In the survey, it was found that the unfair evaluation of leaders was a major setback in the career of many teachers. This is closely related to the characteristics of intellectuals. Such an incident happened in our province. A young Chinese teacher once had an argument with his parents and was slapped by them. He told the headmaster that he didn't get the attention of the headmaster. He couldn't figure it out and committed suicide by taking poison. How to evaluate teachers and their work performance is a problem that every school leader deserves to study.

5. The obstruction of teachers' evaluation of professional titles is another trigger for teachers' mental health problems. Although the professional titles of primary and secondary school teachers are directly linked to their salaries, it is not the economic loss that causes teachers' psychological setbacks, but the blow to their self-esteem.
