| This study aimed at investigating the relationship between EFL teachers' job satisfaction and burnout in public schools and private institutes in Iran. Participants in this study were 120 EFL teachers (60 from public schools and 60 from private institutes) in Urmia, Iran. Following Ho and Au's (2006) job satisfaction questionnaire, the researchers asked the participants to answer 22 questions. Moreover, the participants were asked to fill out Maslach, Jackson, and Leiter's (1996) burnout questionnaire including 22 questions. After collecting the quantitative data, the researchers interviewed 10 participants to find out the sources of teachers' job dissatisfaction and burnout. The results showed a significant negative relationship between EFL teachers’ job satisfaction and burnout in public schools and private institutes. Moreover, teachers in public schools had more job satisfaction and less job burnout than the ones in private institutes. Furthermore, the findings of the interview proved 8 main sources of teachers' job dissatisfaction and burnout. The results of the study have useful implications for teachers in public schools and private institutes in EFL context. |
