Abstract

The study investigates the challenges encountered in secondary school teachers' student education activities in the provinces of the Northern Midland and mountainous regions. The main method used in the study was a questionnaire survey of 600 participants to assess five areas of difficulty: tactful behavior with students, teaching life skills, fostering ethical standards, organizing experiential and careeroriented activities aligned with the 2018 General Education Program, and collaboration with parents. The results showed that coordination with parents posed the greatest challenge (average score: 3.27), while forming ethical standards for students was the least challenging (average score: 2.78). There are differences in the average difficulty in educational activities between groups of variables at the same level of comparison regarding: region, seniority, ethnicity, and number of years of achieving excellent teacher status.
