Abstract
"This study follows a qualitative method, in which the main purpose is to identify and explore some of the experiences that two female teachers have faced during their professional trajectories as English teachers. The research questions that guide this study are: RQ1- What kind of experiences have these two female English teachers faced during their professional trajectories? RQ2- How have these two female English teachers solved the challenges they have encountered during their professional trajectories? RQ3- What are some recommendations these female English teachers make to novice English teachers (especially female teachers)? The study followed a narrative inquiry in which narratives were the instrument to carry out this research. The participants shared their experiences as novice and expert teachers in rural and urban contexts. (Puebla- Tlaxcala). The data was analyzed, and the findings showed that female English teachers may face challenges such as mobbing, teaching experiences, low salaries, safety, harassment, and work environment. This research shows the real panorama that female English teachers may face during their trajectories and, in spite of the times, those challenges continue nowadays".
