Abstract

Foreign language teachers' psychology has garnered increased attention over the past decade. However, some factors related to Foreign Language Teaching Enjoyment (FLTE) have not been fully explored. This chapter aims to examine its relationship with two psychological factors, teacher burnout and resilience, and an experiential factor, years of teaching experience. A convenience sample of Iranian English language teachers with diverse backgrounds including years of teaching experience, completed three valid and reliable instruments adapted from previous studies. The results of a regression analysis revealed that both burnout and resilience significantly contributed to enjoyment, with resilience playing a more substantial role in shaping this positive emotion. Moreover, a significant positive relationship was observed between teaching experience and enjoyment. These results underscore the nuanced interplay of psychological and experiential factors in shaping English language teachers' enjoyment in their profession.
