Abstract

The objective was to understand the perception of teachers in the early years of elementary school about their own mental health in the context of remote teaching in the COVID-19 pandemic. Twenty professors participated, 19 female and 1 male. For data collection, an online questionnaire was used, with open and closed questions. Data were analyzed using content analysis. The results obtained in the research showed that, although emergency remote teaching has been important for the maintenance of school activities and even for expanding students' autonomy, the mental health of teachers was negatively affected, among other factors, by the overload of work. work, lack of training and institutional support.
