The study of trainees" satisfaction with in-service training for the qualification of 1st grade English teachers in a secondary school

  This paper surveyed the satisfaction with in-service training for the first grade English teachers in a secondary school from seven regions selected at random. The study was concerned mainly with two categories; the general attitude towards the training and the quality of the English education training. The survey was carried out to English teachers who had completed a session of in-service training. The survey revealed the following: 1) Most participants weren"t satisfied with the training. 2) The reason why they joined the training was not to improve their teaching ability, but to improve their employment classification. 3) Those who attended training sessions at regional training centers were more satisfied than those who went to university training centers. 4) The teachers who participated in the training preferred various types of practical techniques to theoretical ones on English education. Based on the above findings, to improve the efficiency of the training and enhance the satisfaction of those involved, this paper suggests the following: 1) Training should be conducted in a participant-centered fashion in order to improve teacher involvement and satisfaction. 2) Every region should set up a regional training center to better provide in-service training to its teachers. 3) The training centers should be jointly run by participant teachers, center faculty, and administration through the prior survey of English teachers who will participate in the training.
