JOB SATISFACTION OF TEACHERS IN AZERBAIJAN

One of the most fundamental variables of quality education is undoubtedly teachers. Teachers are individuals who make effective contributions to the development of talents and skills that are ultimately linked to the overall growth and development of students and the well-being of society. In many countries, teachers are regarded as part of the intellectual elite and as positive role models. In this context, high job satisfaction among teachers is one of the most important priorities. This research was conducted to determine the general state of job satisfaction among teachers in Azerbaijan. The research utilized a quantitative method and an online questionnaire was used to collect data. A total of 208 teachers took part in the survey using the “Snowball” method. An analysis of the results showed that the level of job satisfaction among teachers in Azerbaijan is generally close to the results of the 2018 TALIS study.
