摘要：In today’s knowledge economy the importance of education has been worldwide recognized. All developed countries are spending a major part of their budget on education. Within education system of any country, teachers have vital position, as the success of educational institutions is mostly dependent on teachers, who educate the most valued assets of country, i.e. students; therefore the teachers’ performance is fundamental concern of all educational institutions. The teachers’ performance is negatively influenced by different stress contributing factors which either exists within or outside the educational institution, that impede the performance of teachers, resulting in lower individual as well as institutional productivity. The present study has carried out a non-systematic narrative overview of the teachers’ stress, performance and resources by conceptualizing them for understating the phenomenon of “moderating effect of teachers’ resources on the teachers’ stress and performance”. It has been found that the teachers’ stress is a reaction of teachers to the unwanted environment factors furthermore the performance of teachers is both tasks and non task related. The teachers’ stress negatively affects the performance of teacher by lowering the productivity of individual teacher and of educational institution. The teachers’ resources act as moderator by minimizing negative effects of stress. The educational institutions should focus on teachers’ problems through understanding teachers’ problems and also providing proper support to the teachers for dealing problems. On other side the teachers by themselves should learn to adjust to the demands of teaching profession. Together teachers, educational institutions and society as whole can ensure the success and growth of educational institutions for the socio-economic development of a country.
