Abstract:

This study aimed to determine the mediating effect of teachers’ characteristics on the relationship between self-efficacy and job satisfaction. This research employed a non-experimental quantitative design utilizing the descriptive correlation technique. The respondents of this study were the 117 high school teachers coming from the 4 different school of East and West Maitum District namely: Malalag National High School, Maguling National High School, James Alfred Strong Integrated School and Wali Integrated School. Based on the results of the study, the common teacher’s characteristics were exhibited most of the time in terms of preparedness, fairness, creativeness, compassionate, respect for learners, personal touch, sense of humor, forgiving, collaboration, and effectiveness in communication. Second, the level of teacher’s self-efficacy was high in terms of student engagement, classroom management, and instruction strategies. Third, the level of job satisfaction was high in terms of security, work environment, job responsibilities and community attachments/linkages. Lastly, there was a significant relationship between teacher’s characteristics and self-efficacy, teacher’s characteristics and job satisfaction, and self-efficacy and job satisfaction. Nevertheless, the result showed a partial mediating effect of teacher’s characteristics on the relationship between self-efficacy and job satisfaction.
