    Abstract

    Abstract
    This qualitative study examined the strategies that were utilized by teachers to avoid burnout in the classroom. The researcher interviewed 15 secondary public school teachers with at least two years of experience as a classroom teacher. The aim of this study was to create an action plan to assist with teacher burnout in schools. This research revealed three themes of strategies in which teachers were using to reduce burnout within the classroom: planning and preparation, leisure activities, and effective instructional techniques. This study was interdisciplinary in nature, where as burnout was examined in business, as well as healthcare professions. This research will add to the literature that exists already and encompass cura personalis, which is care for the entire person. The results of this study were used to develop and present an action plan that is intended to assist school districts and teachers with supportive measures, which in turn is expected to create a sustainable workplace.
