Abstract

Self-efficacy beliefs is an important matter especially for teachers to have it as it enables an individual’s will to not give up easily if faced with challenging situations. By having high self-efficacy beliefs, teachers are expected to be able to effectively handle the difficulties they face in their classrooms so that they are able to select teaching methods, technique as well as the materials that will help them in teaching. However, little has been done on exploring specifically about English teachers’ self-efficacy beliefs in teaching reading using technology during the post-pandemic era. This study is done by implementing narrative inquiry which expected to be able to give detailed information about teachers’ personal experience in utilizing technology and how they evaluate their self-efficacy dealing with it. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data obtained. Findings showed that despite implementing technology to increase students’ motivation is a success, it doesn’t apply in increasing students’ achievements. Therefore, to improve students’ achievements the teachers decided to focus on sharpening the students’ basic skills using school textbooks. Moreover, teachers also apply variations in teaching reading by implementing group work.

Abstract

Teaching has been recognized as one of stressful occupations. In Indonesia, EFL teachers also perceive stress at work due to abundant responsibilities that they carry out. The use of coping strategies is essential to help them deal with stress at work. Therefore, this study aims to explore EFL teachers' experiences, especially the sources of their stress, the coping strategies used by EFL teachers, and the advantages and challenges of using those coping strategies. Using a narrative-based approach to explore their experiences, the findings show that there were 8 sources of EFL teacher’s stress at work. The coping strategies varied from five areas of: work demands, boredom, personal conflict, interpersonal conflict, and emotion. Those coping strategies were helpful to lessen the feeling of stress and resolve teachers’ problems at work. Despite those advantages, the teachers also mentioned that lack of me-time can be a challenge for the optimum use of the coping strategies. Meanwhile, social support from family and friends can contribute to help the teachers deal with their stress at work.
