Abstract
The paper shows a new approach to understanding the professional consciousness of teachers during the pandemic. EFL teachers during the COVID-19 era witnessed a range of contradictions Between motives, expectations, attitudes, and the need for professional self-determination and to establish themselves as EFL teachers and the contradiction between the need for self-fulfillment in professional activity and the level of creativity of the person (Harvey & Nilsson, 2022). These contradictions generated a sense of fear that caused a psychological threat to the stability of the EFL teacher, both professionally and personally. I focused on coping as a solution to overcome these contradictions. My proposed approach to coping goes beyond the psychological dimension to integrate other dimensions that are informed by the previous COVID-19 instructional experience.
