Summary/Abstract: In the context of social challenges, of school organization continuous change and teachers looking for their professional identity, we propose to identify which are the reasons that teachers continue to perform this profession, what they like and dislike about their job / professional environment. So, this paper aims to analyse some issues concerning professional values associated with their satisfaction for their job and professional solidarity of teachers from pre-university level. For this purpose, we have proposed a qualitative study, based on check – list (Sort Card) and interview. We have used check list (sort cart as instrument) in order to establish a hierarchy of the reasons that teachers (investigated subjects) like and what they dislike about their job; and also, we have used interview in order to complete the information about our subjects’ professional satisfaction. Other results are discussed here.
