Abstract

Teachers are undoubtedly one of the indispensable elements of education and training. Considering today's conditions, teachers make a significant contribution to education. The effectiveness and efficiency of the education-teaching process are possible by providing quality education. Obtaining the necessary efficiency from the education-teaching process is only directly related to the satisfaction of the teachers in their profession and their motivation to teach. This study intends to analyze the expectations and motivation of physical education and sports teachers in the teaching profession. In the research study group, an interview has been utilized with thirty PE and sports instructors performing in schools affiliated with the Iğdır Provincial Directorate of National Education voluntarily. In this current study, with the use of the interview approach, the data acquired have been scrutinized with the aid of the content analysis measure. The results demonstrate that the teaching occupation is respected and sacred, a occupation that must be regarded and guides the society. In addition, the research group expects it is necessary to popularize the culture of physical education and sports in society, raise individuals who love sports, and eliminate the prejudice against physical education and sports lessons.
