Abstract

This article takes the youth teachers in private university of Mainland China as research object, through a lot of literature review focused on teacher burnout, and the context, the author finds the major factors about youth teachers’ burnout, which are the Influences from external environment in private university, influences from internal environment in private university, and the influences from teachers’ own professionalism. Based on author’s experience and the youth teachers’ experience, the more effective strategy for releasing burnout among private university youth teachers is using the motivation system, using Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and Herzberg’s two-factor theory. Once the sense of belonging was formed, the youth teachers trust their prosperity are indivisible with the schools, and they inspire their work enthusiasm and creativity consciously. Only in this way, the private university can have a long-term sustainable development.
