Regretfully, the majority of past research did not include the wellbeing of teachers.

Eight issues or themed emerged from the thematic analysis of this review, including 1) physical to online teaching and learning; 2) increased working hours; 3) non-teaching tasks; 4) appreciation and respect; 5) stress; 6) physical and mental condition; 7) uncertainty and 8) burnout. 22 sub-themes have emerged from the eight main topics, and several recommendations were made for the benefit of future researchers at the conclusion of this study. The findings explained the effect that cause by heavy workload which should be addressed quickly to help the educators’ well-being.
