Summary: | This study intended to clarify whether there are significant relationships between the job satisfaction of the English Language teachers in Perak Tengah district toward the selected variables with respect to type of school and respondents gender or sex. A questionnaire that was modified from Dr. Patricia Cain Smiths Job Descriptive Index (JDI) and the Likert-type scale were used to collect the data for this study. This study involved ten respondents from two different schools in Perak Tengah district, and they were SMK Iskandar Shah, Parit, and SMK Sultan Muhammad Shah, Parit. The results of this study showed that hypothesis null could not be rejected, that is there is no statistical significant difference in the English language teachers job satisfaction between respondents gender and types of school. The findings showed that most English language teachers were unsure about their present job, income and BISP allowance, facilities, and Malaysian Remuneration System. Only grade B school respondents indicated that they were satisfied with their supervisor and supervision, but this school also showed that the male respondents were dissatisfied in terms of promotion. The only positive facet of work of the selected respondents was in terms of co-workers. |
