Özet:

The purpose of this research is to identify what problems music teachers face in their professional lives. The research questions created in line with the general purpose of the research were gathered in seven subtitles for physical, environmental, management-related, personal, student-related, application and evaluation as problems that music teachers may encounter in their professional lives. The study is an imaginary research, and the scan model is used. The research sample included 62 music teachers who are working in Istanbul, Bursa, Bolu, Kocaeli, İzmir and Şırnak Islands. In the collection of data, the researchers used a survey created from open-end questions in seven subtitles. The responses received from the music teachers were evaluated and expression, frequency and percentage tables were created. The study found that music teachers had a number of problems in all subtitles according to the answers they gave. The physical problem most mentioned by music teachers is that there is no class specially dedicated to music lessons in our schools. Another problem is the absence of instruments and music lessons related to the CD player, the table, the note tape, the drawing table, the music archive, the mixer, the microphone suitable for concerts, etc. The lack of equipment and materials. The area of the most commonly felt problem with regard to the environment is the fact that families consider music lessons unimportant for reasons such as not seeing the value of the course, not knowing the importance of the course or focusing on academic success, not having any interest in the course. Related to managers, the most problematic situation is that managers are not aware of the benefits and motivation that art lessons provide to the child or are not concerned about the field and that music or music lessons are only a field of mind in the ceremonies. Exhaust or anxiety about music teachers, loss of respect for the profession, the failure of students to fall to the level of meaning and the failure of the music teacher to find time and opportunity to develop himself in the professional sense in relation to self-sufficiency, the problems that the music teacher feels insufficient are the most perceived personal problems. The fact that students are uninterested in music and music courses, the fact that students are not able to play and take lessons for economic reasons, is the most perceived student problem. The most common problems in the practice are the lack of classes, the too much crowd of classes, and some teachers use the note as a crossing against the students. The music class relating to the assessment is seen as a high-ranking course and it seems that the classes are too crowded and lead to assessment problems.
