This paper aimed to compare teachers' job satisfaction in Israel, German, K.S.A and Italy. This study will examine how demography, teacher satisfaction in online classes, and teacher-student interaction, affect their job satisfaction. The study also examined the challenges that confront teachers in online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study adopted a quantitative approach, consisting of 5 demographic questions, {Gender, Experience, Academic qualification, School type, Country} and 26 items were adopted from (Nambiar, 2020) and (Pepe, 2011) questionnaires "Measuring Teacher Job Satisfaction", distributed into 4 domains {Teacher's perception of online classes; teachers-students interaction in online classes; challenges in online classes; teachers' satisfaction in online classes}. To achieve the objectives of this study, the author utilized responses from 1062 teachers working across Israel, German, K.S.A and Italy. The study revealed that the perception of teachers and teacher-student interaction in online classes influenced the job satisfaction of teachers. The findings revealed that teacher job satisfaction in Israel, German, K.S.A. and Italy were independent of demographic attributes. The online classes also came along with their challenges, which all the countries' teachers ranked high.
