The questionnaire was adopted from Hock (1988) and Riehl and Sipple (1996). The sample was composed of 48 elementary English teachers of private schools in Beirut. The results showed that only the school climate was positively related with both forms of burnout. Moreover, it was found that buffers (i.e. parental support, paperwork and being provided with the necessary teaching materials) were significantly related with teachers' physical burnout. While the order of students (i.e. students' attitude toward school work and their behavior in classroom) and administrative support were significantly correlated with teachers' psychological burnout. Salary was also found to be the highest stress-inducing factor among the other job-stressors, for most of these teachers. Therefore, to enhance the psychological and physical well-being of teachers, they should be supported by their principals and by their students' parents. In addition, they should be provided with the essential teaching materials and be relieved from unnecessary paperwork and from the disciplinary problems that are associated with students UR - http://olibnew.haigazian.edu.lb/olibcgi?infile=details.glu&loid=59925&rs=113034&hitno=26 ER -
