"This qualitative research study investigation specifically applies phenomenology to explore the lived experiences of CPE-graduate science teachers. Data were collected through personal interviews with eight participants using open-ended questions. A 9th participant was chosen to validate repetition of responses and confirm the presence of data saturation. Colaizzi's method was used for data analysis. After thorough analysis of the transcripts, 3 emergent themes and 11 clusters themes have emerged to capture the participants' live experiences: "better working benefits," "proximity of family," teaching beyond area of expertise," "death of learning resources," "different strokes for different folks," "deficient training grounds," "coping through trainings," "love for work," "socialization and support, " and "core values yearned." The study concluded that participants' reasons for changing their careers are to attain stability and receive enough compensation without being away from their families. They also faced different problems when they entered into the teaching profession such teaching beyond their area of expertise, insufficient learning resources and dealing with different learners. However, they have also done some adjustments to cope with these challenges by doing research, asking help from colleagues and attending seminars and trainings. Lastly, the participants have learned to love and find joy in their profession." --Abstract
