OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to identify the perception of high school teachers about teacher motivation. METHODS: The sample had 27 high school teachers of both sexes, 15 participants (55.6%) female and 12 male participants (44.4%). The age ranged from 24 to 68 years, with a mean age of 46 years (SD=11.80). The sample was collected at two state public schools in the metropolitan region of São Paulo, with 13 participants from school 1 (group coding from 1 to 13) and 14 from school 2 (corresponding to coding from 14 to 27. RESULTS: The results showed direct relationships with the expectations and abilities perceived for teaching since childhood, that the reports of the teachers are related to the lack of public policies, that the teachers complain about the disrespect / discompromising of the students, especially with predominance of violence, this The last aspect is related to generators of frustrated teachers. In this it is possible to infer that the student is perceived as the focus of the teacher motivation. CONCLUSION: Teacher motivation results in effective educational practices that tend to cause motivation in students, leading to better school performance, and especially the development of diverse skills such as academic and social.
