AB - The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of middle-aged female teachers by finding outwhat their job-related stress was and examining on their life. Interviews were conducted three times to sixfemale teachers who were middle-aged and have worked at middle school or high school for more than20 years. The interview data were analysed and interpreted based on the phenomenological researchmethod introduced by Giorgi. From a thorough investigation on the participants’ experiences, 114meaning units were derived. Based on them 24 sub-constituents and 9 constituents were constructed. Theresult showed that teaching and student guidance, fellow teachers and administrators, workload and theeducational system caused the job stress of middle-aged female teachers. The level of stress increases ordecreases according to rigid attitudes, responsibility and will to act. The experiences of stress can be anobstacle to get frustrated. However, the experiences of stress can be ultimately a good stepping stone tochange a life. A cause factor of work stress, a control factor and the result of the experiences areconsidered a phenomenon that is associated in a cyclical system. The essential meaning of the job stressexperienced by middle-aged female teachers can be described as growing and becoming mature after thepains and frustrations. Limitations to the current study and recommendations for future research arediscussed.
