ABSTRACT

The study sought to assess music teacher self-efficacy and work engagement. Self-efficacy is one’s belief about his/her capabilities. And it has been seen to help enhance work engagement. The article reviewed the concept of self-efficacy and teacher’s self-efficacy; work engagement; music education; teacher’s musical self-efficacy and also correlate self-efficacy and work engagement. On the bias of the reviews, the paper concluded that self-efficacy is an individual's confidence and the ability to exert control over one's own motivation, behavior, and social environment. One of the recommendations was that, ministry of education should organize musical training/workshops for teachers to increase their level of musical self-efficacy.
