2 Problem statement

A survey conducted by Nock and Bishop ( 2008 ) showed the major causes of Kampuchean instructor dissatisfaction such as low wage, corruption/nepotism, hapless leading, hapless life conditions, pupils behavior, and working environment. The same survey revealed that 99 per centum of the respondents said that they could non last on their salary and this problem caused 93 per centum of them to keep the 2nd occupation. Furthermore, other surveies in Cambodia besides found out the increasing discourtesy from society toward instructors in public schools ( CITA, 2010 ) . MoEYS ( 2010b ) admitted that many learning forces has left their instruction places, transferred to the new occupation, and reached the retirement age and this job besides occurs in MLVT. These surveies had non specified the jobs in Technical Vocational Education and Training ( TVET ) but it stated the common jobs go oning in Kampuchean instruction environment.In add-on to the affairs mentioned above, TVET is a really hapless sector in Cambodia and it is ever considered as the 2nd pick to all people including pupils.

TVET is a freshly established establishment which has merely been started developing in 2004, the twelvemonth that MLVT was established. The registration rate in TVET is really low if comparing to the Academic Education. Furthermore, the leading, learning installations, and particularly human resources are in the bad status. Yet, there are many alumnuss who come and apply for the entryway scrutiny to be a TVET instructor at NTTI.

Based on the observation at NTTI, normally the figure of appliers who applied for the entryway scrutiny at NTTI ever far exceeds the figure of recruits. For illustration, in the academic twelvemonth 2012 - 2013, there are more than 1,800 campaigners have applied for the entryway scrutiny while MLVT recruits merely 300.

Chapter II: Literature reappraisal

A figure of surveies have been conducted in many states throughout the universe over the last 20 old ages researching the motive of those who decide to go school instructors ( Chris Kyriacou & A ; Mellissa Coulthard, 2000 ) . Such surveies indicate that the chief grounds for taking instruction as a calling autumn into three chief countries: ( 1 ) selfless grounds: these grounds deal with seeing learning as a socially worthwhile and of import occupation, a desire to assist kids win, and a desire to assist society better ; ( 2 ) instrinsic grounds: these ground conver facets of the occupation activity itself, such as the activity of learning kids, and an involvement in utilizing their capable affair cognition and expertness ; and ( 3 ) extrinsic grounds: these grounds cover facets of the occupation which are non built-in in the work itself, such as long vacations, degree of wage, and position. The consequences of such surveies have received peculiar attending because of the enlisting crisis confronting many states in pulling people of sufficient quality into the instruction ( Chris Kyriacou & A ; Mellissa Coulthard, 2000 ) .The survey above shows us about the three grounds why some pupils choose the instructor calling for their occupation, and the manner that people help the following coevals to be successful in their life is one portion of taking teacher profession. Another ground is that they wish to portion cognition and expertness to other people in order to supply the capable affair to their community.

In contrast, some people choose teacher calling for their ain benefit such as good payment, for journey, or for pleasance. However, the survey revealed that 95 % of pupils rated 'a occupation that I will happen gratifying ' as really of import factor in taking learning calling. Some other factors were besides high rated such as 'working with kids ' , 'a occupation where I will lend to society ' and 'a occupation which give me duty ' , ( Chris Kyriacou & A ; Mellissa Coulthard, 2000 ) .Another survey conducted by Thomas J.

DeLong ( 1987 ) , has stated some grounds why people choose their calling in learning as following: most people rated 'I like working with children/youth ' the most follow by 'I like to assist others larn and develop ' , following is 'it fulfills a demand of mine to experience useful/contributing ' , and so 'I wish the hours and holidaies ' , least rated one is 'It 's a profession that besides allows me clip to prosecute other occupations or concern ' and 'I wish money ' . The survey besides stated about the influences on instructors ' credence of first learning occupations such as geographical location, learn my country of expertness, merely needed a occupation, occupation satisfaction, good administration/bosses, long-range security, a opportunity to be originative, good physical environment, benefits, liberty, and promotion into school disposal. The consequence of this survey suggests that instructors go into learning for really different grounds and are influenced in different ways to take learning as calling.The five grounds which received the highest evaluation in a research survey conducted by Chris Kyriacou, Age Hultgren & A ; Paul Stephens, are as follow: ( 1 ) I enjoy the topic I will learn, ( 2 ) It enables me to utilize my topic, ( 3 ) I like working with kids, ( 4 ) There are long vacations, and ( 5 ) It is a socially worthwhile occupation. However, there are two grounds which got the highest evaluation ; 'I want to assist kids win ' and 'I enjoy the topic I will learn ' . These findings are conducted by both the York and Stavanger sample.

In drumhead, the antecedently cited literature identified a consistent set of the most commonly popular factors that persons had for come ining the instruction profession. These factors included: basking working with kids and immature people ; doing a difference to society, acquiring the chance to be originative ; and a respected good paid profession. In add-on, many instructors found their occupation emotionally fulfilling. The selfless factors were the focal point of most of the cited surveies.
